LLR Intersections and Turning Procedures 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: When approaching an intersection with a flashing yellow light, you should:
- Slow down and proceed with caution (Correct answer)
- Stop completely before proceeding
- Speed up to clear the intersection quickly
- Treat it as a four-way stop and wait your turn
Correct answer: Slow down and proceed with caution
A flashing yellow light means slow down and proceed with caution — you are not required to stop unless it is necessary for safety.
Question 2: When making a left turn on a multilane road, you should turn into:
- The leftmost available lane of the road you are entering (Correct answer)
- Any open lane that is most convenient
- The rightmost lane of the road you are entering
- The center lane of the road you are entering
Correct answer: The leftmost available lane of the road you are entering
When turning left on a multilane road, you should turn into the nearest left lane to keep turns orderly and predictable.
Question 3: What does a white arrow painted in a turn lane on the road surface indicate?
- You must turn in the direction the arrow points (Correct answer)
- You may turn or go straight from that lane
- The lane is designated for passing vehicles only
- You must yield before merging into the lane
Correct answer: You must turn in the direction the arrow points
White lane arrows direct drivers to travel in the direction shown — you must follow the arrow's direction when in that lane.
Question 4: When two vehicles approach an uncontrolled intersection at the same time from perpendicular directions:
- The vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right (Correct answer)
- The vehicle on the right must yield to the vehicle on the left
- The vehicle traveling at higher speed has the right of way
- Both vehicles must stop and negotiate who goes first
Correct answer: The vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right
At uncontrolled intersections, the vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right.
Question 5: What is the correct hand signal for a right turn?
- Left arm extended upward with elbow bent at 90 degrees (Correct answer)
- Left arm extended straight out the window horizontally
- Left arm angled downward toward the ground
- Right arm extended straight out through the window
Correct answer: Left arm extended upward with elbow bent at 90 degrees
The hand signal for a right turn is made with the left arm bent upward at the elbow at a 90-degree angle.
Question 6: When a traffic signal is not working at an intersection, drivers should:
- Treat the intersection as a four-way stop (Correct answer)
- Proceed through without stopping if the path looks clear
- Yield only to vehicles on the main or wider road
- Wait for a police officer to direct traffic before moving
Correct answer: Treat the intersection as a four-way stop
When traffic signals fail, the intersection must be treated as a four-way stop, requiring all drivers to stop and take turns.
Question 7: When a dedicated left-turn arrow signal is shown in green, it means:
- You may turn left and oncoming traffic is stopped by a red light (Correct answer)
- You may turn left but must still yield to oncoming traffic
- You must stop and wait for a full green light before turning
- The lane is reserved for U-turns only
Correct answer: You may turn left and oncoming traffic is stopped by a red light
A green left-turn arrow provides a protected turn — oncoming traffic is stopped by a red light, so you may proceed safely.
