Sample question from test 6
signals-markings
What does a steady yellow light tell a driver approaching an intersection?
- The red light will be shown immediately afterward
- The signal will stay yellow until traffic clears
- A driver should speed up to enter first
- Cross traffic must stop for you
Answer: The red light will be shown immediately afterward. A steady yellow light announces that red is coming immediately afterward. It is a warning to avoid entering the intersection, not an invitation to accelerate or a promise that cross traffic will yield. The second choice invents a continuing condition that the signal does not provide. Check your distance and speed when yellow appears, and stop when you can do so safely before the stop line or intersection. The key cue is the transition from permitted movement to the red phase.
