Manitoba Class 5 Learner's Driving Test Intersections and Yielding 6

Question 1

In Manitoba, what is an 'advance green' (left-turn advance) at an intersection?

Accepted Answer

A green arrow that appears before the main green, giving left-turning vehicles a protected turn phase

Answer

An advance green (left-turn advance) gives left-turning vehicles a protected phase before the main green light. During this phase, oncoming traffic has a red light, allowing safe left turns.

Question 2

At a Manitoba intersection, what does a solid green left-turn arrow changing to a steady green light mean?

Accepted Answer

The protected turn phase has ended — you may still turn left but must yield to oncoming traffic

Answer

When the green arrow changes to a steady green light, the protected phase is over. You may still turn left on the green light, but you must now yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians before turning.

Question 3

What should you do if you accidentally enter the wrong lane at a roundabout in Manitoba?

Accepted Answer

Continue around the roundabout and exit safely, then re-enter in the correct lane

Answer

Never stop, back up, or cut across lanes in a roundabout. If you are in the wrong lane, continue around the roundabout safely and exit, then re-enter if needed. Safety is more important than missing your exit.

Question 4

In Manitoba, what must a driver do when a pedestrian is crossing at a mid-block crosswalk (not at an intersection)?

Accepted Answer

Stop and yield to the pedestrian until they have completely crossed your half of the road

Answer

At mid-block crosswalks, drivers must stop and yield to pedestrians. You should remain stopped until the pedestrian has crossed at least your half of the road. Passing another vehicle stopped at a crosswalk is illegal.

Question 5

When waiting to turn left at a busy Manitoba intersection, should you enter the intersection while waiting for a gap?

Accepted Answer

Yes, one vehicle may wait in the intersection and complete the turn when the light turns yellow or red, provided it is safe

Answer

In Manitoba, one vehicle may pull into the intersection while waiting for a gap to turn left on a green light. If the light turns yellow or red before a gap appears, the waiting vehicle may complete the turn once oncoming traffic stops.
