Sample question from test 9
signals-markings
You are waiting to turn left at a green circular light. What must you do before turning?
- Yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians in the crosswalk
- Turn immediately because a green light gives a protected left turn
- Wait until the light becomes a red arrow
- Yield only to vehicles approaching from the right
Answer: Yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians in the crosswalk. A green circle permits movement, but it does not remove the conflict created by an opposing vehicle or a person in the crosswalk. A left-turning driver must wait until those users have cleared safely. The protected-left choice confuses a circular green indication with a signal that specifically protects the turn. Waiting for a red arrow would be both unnecessary and unsafe, and watching only the right side ignores opposing traffic. Before turning, scan across the intersection, yield, and complete the movement only when the path is open.
