DKT - Driver Knowledge Test Intersections 1 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: When entering a roundabout, you must yield to:
- Vehicles entering from your right
- Vehicles already circulating inside the roundabout (Correct answer)
- Pedestrians only
- No one — the first vehicle to enter has priority
Correct answer: Vehicles already circulating inside the roundabout
Vehicles already travelling inside a roundabout have right of way. Entering drivers must give way to circulating traffic before merging, which keeps the flow moving safely and predictably.
Question 2: You arrive at an uncontrolled intersection (no signs or traffic lights) at the same time as a vehicle on your right. What should you do?
- Sound your horn and proceed
- Speed up to clear the intersection first
- Give way to the vehicle on your right (Correct answer)
- Flash your headlights to signal the other driver to stop
Correct answer: Give way to the vehicle on your right
At an uncontrolled intersection, the 'give way to the right' rule applies. If vehicles arrive simultaneously, you must yield to any vehicle on your immediate right before proceeding.
Question 3: You are stopped at a red light and want to turn right. There is a 'No Turn on Red' sign. What must you do?
- Wait for a gap in traffic and turn carefully
- Treat it like a stop sign and proceed when clear
- Wait for the light to turn green before turning (Correct answer)
- Turn only if no pedestrians are present
Correct answer: Wait for the light to turn green before turning
A 'No Turn on Red' sign means you must remain stopped until the light turns green, regardless of traffic conditions. Ignoring this sign is a traffic offence.
Question 4: A steady yellow arrow signal appears while you are waiting to turn left at an intersection. This means:
- Accelerate and complete the turn before the light changes
- The left-turn signal is about to end — prepare to stop if safe to do so (Correct answer)
- You may turn left immediately without yielding
- Yield to oncoming traffic, then turn left
Correct answer: The left-turn signal is about to end — prepare to stop if safe to do so
A steady yellow arrow warns that the protected turning phase is ending. You should begin stopping if it is safe to do so. Speeding up to beat the signal is dangerous and illegal.
Question 5: You are in the middle of an intersection waiting to complete a left turn when the traffic light turns red. What should you do?
- Stay in the intersection and wait for the next green light
- Reverse out of the intersection immediately
- Complete the turn as soon as oncoming traffic clears, even though the light is red (Correct answer)
- Sound your horn to alert oncoming drivers to stop
Correct answer: Complete the turn as soon as oncoming traffic clears, even though the light is red
If you have already entered an intersection on a green light to turn left, you must complete the turn when it is safe to do so, even if the light has changed. Staying stopped in the intersection or reversing would create a greater hazard.
