Question 6098
If there is a red traffic light on the left and a green one on the right, and you intend to continue straight ahead, you must obey the traffic light that is...
- red, because it is on the left and I intend to continue straight ahead.
- green, because it is on the right.
- green, but it requires me to turn left.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: red, because it is on the left and I intend to continue straight ahead.
When the traffic lights on each side give different instructions and you are going straight, only the one on your left applies. The red light requires you to stop even if the light on the right is green, because that one applies to drivers turning right. A green light does not require anyone to turn left, either.
