Car Driver Knowledge Test - Lanes 2

Question 1

It is early morning and there is no other traffic about. You approach an intersection when the traffic lights change from green to yellow. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Stop.

Answer

A yellow traffic light indicates that the light is about to turn red. Drivers should stop if it is safe to do so before entering the intersection. Proceeding through a yellow light is only permissible if you are so close to the intersection that stopping safely would be impossible without causing a hazard.

Question 2

Where do you stop at temporary traffic lights?

Accepted Answer

At the 'Stop here on red signal' sign.

Answer

At temporary traffic lights, such as those found in construction zones, drivers must stop at the designated 'Stop here on red signal' sign. This sign indicates the precise point where vehicles should halt to ensure safety and proper traffic flow through the work area. Stopping at this sign prevents obstructing the work zone or other traffic movements.

Question 3

When the road is marked this way are you permitted to cross the lines to overtake the bicycle rider if the way forward is clear?

Accepted Answer

Yes.

Answer

Road markings with a broken line on your side next to a solid line generally permit you to cross to overtake if it is safe and clear. This rule applies to overtaking slower vehicles like bicycles, provided you have sufficient visibility and space to complete the maneuver safely without impeding oncoming traffic.

Question 4

You want to turn right at an intersection and see this traffic light. You should:

Accepted Answer

Stay behind the stop line until the green arrow shows.

Answer

A red traffic light means stop, and a green arrow indicates a protected turn in that specific direction. When you see a red light with a green arrow for a right turn, you must stay behind the stop line until the green arrow illuminates. This ensures you only proceed when it is safe and legally permitted for that specific turn.

Question 5

You are in car marked Y and want to turn right using a median turning lane. A car marked O, coming towards you, is already in the median lane; it is slowing down and indicating. Are you permitted to enter and share the median turning lane?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you must be prepared to slow down and stop.

Answer

Median turning lanes are designed to allow vehicles from opposing directions to wait safely before turning. While an oncoming car is already in the lane, you are permitted to enter and share it. However, you must be prepared to slow down or stop to avoid collision and ensure both vehicles can complete their turns safely.
