Question 2

When entering a roundabout, who has the right-of-way?

Accepted Answer

Vehicles already circulating inside the roundabout

Question 3

What should a driver do when approaching an intersection and the traffic light changes from green to yellow?

Accepted Answer

Stop if it is safe to do so before the stop line

A yellow light signals that the light is about to turn red; drivers should stop if they can do so safely before the stop line.

Question 4

Which vehicle has the right-of-way at an intersection where one road has a stop sign and the other does not?

Accepted Answer

The vehicle on the road without the stop sign

Answer

The stop sign requires drivers to yield to all traffic on the intersecting through road before proceeding.

Question 5

What does it mean to 'take turns' or 'alternate' at a zipper merge on a lane closure?

Drivers in both lanes take turns merging one-for-one at the merge point

A zipper merge means both lanes remain in use until the closure point, then vehicles alternate one-for-one, improving traffic flow and safety.
