Saskatchewan Class 7 Learner's Driving Test Intersections and Right of Way 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In Saskatchewan, when must a driver yield to pedestrians?
- Only at marked crosswalks
- At marked crosswalks and unmarked crosswalks at intersections (Correct answer)
- Only when the pedestrian has a walk signal
- Only when the pedestrian is on the driver's side of the road
Correct answer: At marked crosswalks and unmarked crosswalks at intersections
Drivers must yield to pedestrians at both marked crosswalks and unmarked crosswalks, which exist at every intersection even without painted lines.
Question 2: What should you do if you are in an intersection waiting to turn left and the light turns red?
- Back up to behind the stop line
- Complete your turn safely and clear the intersection (Correct answer)
- Stop in the middle of the intersection
- Turn immediately regardless of oncoming traffic
Correct answer: Complete your turn safely and clear the intersection
If you have legally entered the intersection to turn left and the light turns red, you must complete your turn and clear the intersection safely when oncoming traffic stops.
Question 3: Who has the right of way in a traffic circle or roundabout in Saskatchewan?
- Vehicles entering the roundabout
- Vehicles already in the roundabout (Correct answer)
- Vehicles on the right
- The largest vehicle
Correct answer: Vehicles already in the roundabout
Vehicles already circulating in the roundabout have the right of way. Vehicles entering must yield to traffic already in the circle.
Question 4: At an intersection controlled by traffic signals, when can you enter the intersection?
- On green light only
- On green or yellow light if you cannot stop safely (Correct answer)
- On yellow light always
- Anytime if no other vehicles are present
Correct answer: On green or yellow light if you cannot stop safely
You may enter the intersection on a green light. On a yellow light, you should stop if you can do so safely; if you cannot stop safely, you may proceed through.
Question 5: What does a green arrow traffic signal mean?
- Go in any direction
- You may proceed only in the direction the arrow points, yielding to pedestrians (Correct answer)
- Caution, turn with care
- Protected turn, no need to yield
Correct answer: You may proceed only in the direction the arrow points, yielding to pedestrians
A green arrow indicates you may proceed in the direction of the arrow. You still must yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk, though oncoming traffic should have a red light.
Question 6: When two vehicles approach an uncontrolled intersection from different roads at roughly the same time, who has the right of way?
- The vehicle travelling faster
- The vehicle on the right (Correct answer)
- The vehicle on the larger road
- The vehicle going uphill
Correct answer: The vehicle on the right
At an uncontrolled intersection (no signs or signals), the vehicle approaching from the right has the right of way, and the other driver must yield.
