Dallah Test Traffic Signs and Signals 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: What does a green arrow signal at a traffic light allow?
- Movement in any direction
- Movement only in the direction the arrow points, regardless of other signals (Correct answer)
- Pedestrians to cross
- Emergency vehicles to pass
Correct answer: Movement only in the direction the arrow points, regardless of other signals
A green arrow allows protected movement only in the direction indicated. Even if other lights are red, the green arrow means you may proceed in that specific direction as opposing traffic is held.
Question 2: What is the meaning of road markings with a solid white line on your side and a dashed line on the other side?
- Parking is allowed on your side
- You cannot overtake, but vehicles on the other side can (Correct answer)
- Both sides can overtake freely
- No vehicles are allowed in either lane
Correct answer: You cannot overtake, but vehicles on the other side can
A solid line on your side means you must not cross the line to overtake. A dashed line on the opposite side means vehicles traveling in that direction may overtake when safe. The rule applies to the marking on your side.
Question 3: What does a sign showing a red circle with a diagonal line over a horn symbol mean?
- Honk your horn to warn others
