The traffic lights are not working at a junction. What rules apply?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Treat it as an uncontrolled junction and follow the signs and road markings
- Step 1: Dead lights give no instruction. Step 2. Proceed cautiously and follow signs and priorities. Answer: Treat it as an uncontrolled junction and follow the signs and road markings. Why not the others: Go first if you are on the left: keeping left gives no priority at a junction. Go first if you are in a larger vehicle: size gives no priority at a junction. Treat every other driver as if they all had a green light: drivers cannot all be assumed to have green; that leads to a collision in the middle.
