While you approach the intersection, the light turns yellow. Your car is far enough back to stop safely before the stop line. Which TWO statements are correct? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) is in lane 2 and wants to go straight
- The light has changed from green to yellow
- Car A has already entered the intersection
💡 Hint
On a yellow light the rule is to stop just before the stop line, while a vehicle that has already entered the intersection, even partly, must quickly proceed out of it (Enforcement Rule, Table 2). Note that your car and car A are in different positions, and do not mistake yellow for 'hurry through'.
Answer: ③, ⑤
Explanation
On a yellow light, you must stop just before the stop line, but a vehicle that has already partly entered the intersection must quickly proceed out of it (Enforcement Rule, Annex 2). Your car can stop safely, so it must stop; speeding up to get through is wrong. Stopping inside the intersection blocks traffic from other directions and is dangerous.
