Rules Of The Road, Chapter 4

When an emergency vehicle is approaching, it is important to yield the right of way and come to a complete stop to allow the vehicle to pass safely. Speeding up, ignoring the vehicle, or pulling over and waiting for it to pass may hinder the emergency vehicle's progress and potentially put lives at risk. It is crucial to prioritize the safety of others on the road when responding to emergency vehicles.

In a roundabout, changing lanes is not allowed to maintain traffic flow and safety.

The correct answer is that the tractor will exit from the right lane because it's partly in it. As a big vehicle, it needs the space provided by the right lane for a safe exit.

When pulling out from the side of a road or parking spot, it is important to stop before the sidewalk to ensure pedestrians have a clear path and to have better visibility before merging onto the main road.

In most countries, drivers should stay on the right lane if they are driving slower than the surrounding traffic. The left lane is typically designated for passing or faster-moving vehicles. This helps maintain a smooth flow of traffic and ensures safety on multi-lane roads.

When describing a turn from one type of road to another, the positioning is typically referred to as center to center, left to center, center to left, or left to left. These terms indicate the starting and ending lanes for the turn.

U-turns are generally illegal unless there is a specific sign indicating otherwise. Even if it can be done safely, it is important to follow traffic laws.

When encountering a HOV lane, it is important for drivers to follow traffic regulations and rules to ensure safety and efficiency on the road. In this scenario, the red car should only enter the HOV lane if it is entitled to do so. Otherwise, it should move into the adjacent lane to avoid violating traffic laws.

In order to cross a bicycle lane, the line must be white and broken to indicate that crossing is allowed.

When you have the right of way, you should maintain your speed and proceed safely. It is illegal to speed up when someone is trying to pass you, as it can be dangerous and create a potential hazard on the road.

While it is common for drivers to speed up when passing another vehicle, it is never acceptable to exceed the speed limit in any situation. The speed limits are set to ensure the safety of all road users, so it is important to always adhere to them.

On highways with special passing lanes, drivers should keep to the right if they are not actively passing other vehicles. This helps maintain a smooth flow of traffic and reduces the likelihood of accidents.

The acceleration lane is designed to allow drivers to match the speed of merging vehicles before merging into traffic to ensure a smooth and safe transition.

Slowing down before entering the exit lane may disrupt traffic flow, slowing down after passing the exit lane is too late, and slowing down while approaching the exit lane can be dangerous for other drivers approaching from behind.

A 2-point turn involves stopping at the side of the road and backing into a driveway, while a 3-point turn requires the driver to sharply turn to the left, back up, and then turn to the right to change direction.

When parking your car, it is generally safer and easier to park facing forward for better visibility and easier vehicle maneuverability when exiting the parking spot.

A controlled intersection is one where traffic flow is managed and regulated by signs or signal lights, ensuring safety and efficiency in traffic movements.

When two vehicles arrive at the same time, the standard procedure is for the vehicle on the left to yield to the vehicle on the right to maintain a smooth flow of traffic and prevent accidents.

At an unmarked crosswalk, drivers must stop and yield the right-of-way to pedestrians as if there were marked crosswalk lines present. This helps ensure the safety of pedestrians crossing the street.

When no crosswalk, stop line, or sidewalk is present, it is safest to stop just before entering the intersection to ensure clear visibility and proper traffic flow.

When the white figure changes to an orange hand on a traffic light signal, it indicates that the green light is about to turn yellow.

It's illegal to back up into an intersection or crosswalk.

A flashing green light is typically used for pedestrian-controlled crossings where pedestrians have pushed a button to trigger the light change. Drivers should only proceed if the intersection is cleared to prevent any potential conflicts with pedestrians.

The correct symbols for a protected left turn are specifically related to a green arrow, green light with a flashing green arrow, or a red light with a flashing green arrow, indicating that it is safe to turn left while the opposite traffic faces a red light.

When two vehicles arrive at an intersection at the same time, the vehicle on the right has the right of way.

At a traffic circle, it is important to yield to vehicles already in the circle and the vehicle on your right as per traffic rules. This ensures smooth flow of traffic and prevents accidents.

Traffic circles always turn counterclockwise to maintain traffic flow. Drivers must yield to vehicles already in the circle and must make right turns only when entering the circle.
