Study Notes
Signage and Traffic Signals
- Hazard lights indicate a mechanical problem with the vehicle.
- Guide signs, such as exit signs, provide navigational assistance to drivers.
- Warning signs, like "Signal ahead" and "Road Construction ahead," alert drivers to potential hazards.
- School zone warning signs are identifiable by a pentagon shape.
Traffic Regulations and Right of Way
- Speed limit pavement markings complement traffic signs for speed regulation.
- The law requires yielding the right of way under specific circumstances.
- Motorists must always yield to pedestrians, even when facing a green light.
- Emergency vehicles must have the right of way at all times, regardless of road type.
Intersection Rules
- At a four-way stop, the first driver to arrive should go first.
- Controlled intersections have traffic signals or signs; uncontrolled intersections do not.
- The right of way is defined as allowing one vehicle to proceed first when two reach the same point simultaneously.
Signaling and Lane Changes
- Drivers must signal turns when changing lanes, stopping, or executing turns.
- Hand signals are used when mechanical turn signals are malfunctioning.
Traffic Control Devices
- Broken lines on the road signify permissive conditions for changing lanes.
- A flashing red light requires drivers to stop before proceeding safely.
- A steady circular red light mandates stopping before the stop line at intersections.
- A red X indicates prohibited travel in a lane.
