Question

question 3 of 18

you may continue carefully through a yellow light if:

there are no pedestrians crossing.
there is an emergency vehicle crossing yourlane.
you are turning right.
you are within the intersection.

Explanation:

Analyze the meaning of a yellow traffic light

In Driver Education, a steady yellow traffic light indicates that the green signal is being terminated and the light is about to turn red. Drivers must stop if it is safe to do so.

Evaluate the conditions for proceeding

If a driver is already within the intersection when the light turns yellow, they cannot stop safely and must continue through carefully to clear the intersection.

Assess the given options

• "there are no pedestrians crossing": A yellow light still requires you to stop if you can do so safely, regardless of pedestrians.
• "there is an emergency vehicle crossing your lane": You must yield to emergency vehicles; you cannot proceed.
• "you are turning right": Turning right still requires obeying the signal rules.
• "you are within the intersection": If you are already in the intersection, you must proceed through carefully.

Answer:

• there are no pedestrians crossing.
• there is an emergency vehicle crossing yourlane.
• you are turning right.
• you are within the intersection. (Correct answer)
