Intersections and Turns Exam
Right of way - Answer -Right-of-way rules require one person
to yield and allow the other to proceed.
An intersection - Answer -An intersection is where two or more
roadways meet, creating a possible
conflict between vehicles on those
roads and with pedestrians crossing the
roadways. These are high-risk locations
for collisions. Intersections may be
controlled by traffic signs, traffic signal
lights, or both.
Rules for stopping at intersections - Answer -1) Where a stop line has been marked,
bring your
vehicle to a complete stop before the stop line.
Before moving forward, give pedestrians and
traffic the right-of-way.
2) Stop before the stop line at a marked crosswalk.
3) Where there is no stop line, stop before the marked crosswalk.
4)If there is no stop line or marked crosswalk
at the intersection, you must stop within
three metres (10 feet) of the intersecting
roadway. Stop where you will not interfere with
pedestrians who are crossing or are about to
cross the roadway.
Peace officers - Answer -Directions given by a peace officer or
police officer must be followed over traffic
signs or signals.
Three and four way stops - Answer -Vehicles
approaching from each direction are
required to stop. All drivers must use
courtesy and caution.
Courtesy corners - Answer -Intersections where stop signs are
located at all corners are often referred
to as "courtesy corners.
, Courtesy - Answer -Courtesy is to allow
the vehicle that arrived first to proceed
first. If two vehicles arrive at the same
time, courtesy allows the vehicle on
the right to proceed first. You must not
proceed unless you can do so safely.
Yield sign - Answer -A yield sign means that you must allow other vehicles that do not
face a yield sign the right-of- way to proceed. When approaching a yield sign, reduce
speed as you near the intersection and be prepared to stop. If there are no pedestrians
or traffic that you are required to yield to, you may proceed through the intersection
without coming to a complete stop.
Uncontrolled intersections/T- intersection - Answer -The T intersection without signs or
signals (also known as an uncontrolled
intersection) has no traffic control signs or signals,
therefore the driver on the right
must yield the right-of-way to a vehicle on your right. Check for traffic approaching from
your
left and right when you are approaching
When exiting from service roads, alleys, parking lots, and driveways - Answer -• stop
before any sidewalk crossing
• stop before entering a main street
• yield to pedestrians
Intersection Reminders - Answer -• A driver turning left across the path of
an approaching vehicle cannot turn left
until it is safe.
• Parking lots have intersections without
signs or signals, and the right-of-way
rules apply.
• All intersections have crosswalks that
may be marked or unmarked and you
must not pass another vehicle that has
stopped for a pedestrian.
Keep intersections clear - Answer -Do not enter an intersection until you are
able to clear it completely. If traffic is delayed at an intersection, do not enter the
intersection until you can completely clear the intersection and
crosswalk on the other side.
Traffic circles and Roundabouts - Answer -Traffic circles and roundabouts are
circular intersections designed to improve
traffic flow and safety. Traffic always
