On a road with reversible lanes, I changed lanes and the front of my car has just entered a lane when the square signal above that lane changed to a flashing red X. What is the correct way to drive?
💡 Hint
A flashing red X light means you may not enter that lane, and there is a separate required action if any part of the vehicle has already entered (Enforcement Rule, Table 2). Remember that traffic from the opposite direction will soon use that lane, and that reversing on the road is dangerous.
Answer: ④
Explanation
Under Table 2 of the Enforcement Rule, a flashing red X means vehicles may not enter the lane marked with the X, and any vehicle that has even partly entered must quickly change course out of that lane. Traffic in the opposite direction will soon use that lane, so continuing or stopping there is dangerous. Reversing on the road is also wrong because of the high risk of hitting following cars.
