DKT Car Driver Knowledge Test – Intersections 2

Question 1

If the boom gates are down and the signals are flashing, at a railway level crossing, you may begin to cross:

Accepted Answer

Only when the gate is up and the lights stop flashing.

Answer

At a railway level crossing, boom gates and flashing signals indicate an approaching train or immediate danger. It is illegal and extremely dangerous to cross until the gates are fully raised and the signals have stopped flashing. Prioritizing safety means waiting for all clear indications to ensure the path is clear.

Question 2

When turning left at a roundabout you should enter and leave the roundabout:

Accepted Answer

In the left lane.

Answer

When turning left at a roundabout, drivers should enter and leave the roundabout in the left lane. This is the standard rule for navigating roundabouts when making a left turn. Following this lane discipline ensures a predictable and safe maneuver, aligning with the flow of traffic for that specific turn.

Question 3

Which vehicle in the diagram must give way?

Accepted Answer

Vehicle J.

Answer

Based on common road rules for intersections, vehicles turning across the path of another vehicle or those approaching from a minor road must give way. Vehicle J, often depicted in such diagrams as turning right across oncoming traffic or entering from a give-way street, is typically required to give way to other vehicles to ensure safe passage through the intersection.

Question 4

In this roundabout with two lanes, can the marked car turn right?

Accepted Answer

No, not at any time.

Answer

In a two-lane roundabout, turning right typically requires entering from the right-hand lane. The marked car is in the left lane, which is generally designated for turning left or going straight. Attempting a right turn from the left lane would involve cutting across traffic, creating a dangerous situation and violating standard roundabout rules.

Question 5

When you come to an intersection and the road beyond is choked with vehicles going in the same direction, what should you do?

Accepted Answer

Wait until there is room for you to completely cross the intersection.

Answer

It is crucial to avoid blocking an intersection, even if you have a green light. If the road beyond is choked with traffic, you must wait before entering the intersection until there is enough space for your vehicle to completely clear it. This prevents gridlock and ensures emergency vehicles and cross-traffic can pass.
