Continue in the practice tool above to load more questions, 50 at a time.

Question 1Traffic signs, signals and road markings

On a Lebanese road, a circular sign with a red border and a white centre containing the number 50 tells you that:

  1. The maximum permitted speed is 50 km/h Correct answer.
  2. The recommended speed in good weather is 50 km/h
  3. The minimum permitted speed is 50 km/h
  4. The speed limit applies only to heavy vehicles

Explanation

In Lebanon, as throughout the Vienna Convention sign system used on its roads, a circular sign with a red ring is a prohibition sign. A number inside the ring therefore states the maximum speed allowed beyond the sign. The limit applies to all motor vehicles unless a supplementary plate says otherwise.

Question 2Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You approach an intersection where a traffic officer stands with his right arm raised vertically and his palm facing you. What must you do?

  1. Stop and wait until the officer signals you to proceed Correct answer.
  2. Continue through the intersection if the light is green
  3. Slow down and pass behind the officer
  4. Sound your horn and proceed with caution

Explanation

A raised arm with the palm facing approaching traffic is the standard signal for traffic to stop. Signals given by an officer on duty override traffic lights, signs and road markings. You stay stopped until the officer changes the signal and clearly directs you onward.

Question 3Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A continuous solid white line runs along the centre of the carriageway. What does it mean for your overtaking?

  1. You must not cross or straddle it to overtake Correct answer.
  2. You may cross it only when overtaking slow-moving farm vehicles
  3. You may cross it to overtake if the road ahead is clear
  4. You may cross it only during daylight hours

Explanation

A continuous solid centre line marks a boundary that vehicles must not cross or straddle. It is placed where overtaking would be dangerous, for example on bends or crests with limited visibility. A broken line on your side would instead permit crossing when safe.

Question 4Traffic signs, signals and road markings

What is the meaning of a triangular sign with a red border showing a black symbol of two children?

  1. A playground closed to traffic
  2. A pedestrian zone begins here
  3. A compulsory route for school buses
  4. A school or children crossing ahead Correct answer.

Explanation

Triangular signs with a red border are warning signs, alerting drivers to a hazard ahead. The children symbol warns of a place where children are likely to cross, typically near a school. You should reduce speed and be ready to stop.

Question 5Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You see a blue circular sign with a white arrow pointing to the right. This sign:

  1. Warns of a sharp right bend ahead
  2. Requires you to turn right or keep right as shown Correct answer.
  3. Allows you to turn right only if the lane is clear
  4. Marks a one-way street ending ahead

Explanation

Blue circular signs give mandatory instructions rather than warnings. A white arrow on such a sign directs traffic in the direction indicated, so you must follow it. Warning triangles, by contrast, are used only to alert drivers to hazards.

Question 6Traffic signs, signals and road markings

At a junction controlled by traffic lights, the light turns amber as you approach. What is the correct action?

  1. Reverse to the stop line if you have already crossed it
  2. Continue at the same speed because amber means proceed
  3. Stop unless you are so close that stopping would be unsafe Correct answer.
  4. Accelerate to clear the junction before red appears

Explanation

An amber light means stop, and it is shown long enough for a driver travelling at the limit to stop safely. The only exception is when you have already passed the stop line or are so close that braking would cause a collision. Accelerating to beat the red is dangerous and illegal.

Question 7Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A flashing red light at a level crossing means:

  1. A train is approaching, so stop and wait until the light stops flashing Correct answer.
  2. Only heavy vehicles must stop
  3. The barrier is about to rise, so proceed slowly
  4. The crossing is out of order and you may cross with care

Explanation

At a level crossing, a flashing red light is an absolute stop signal indicating that a train is approaching. You must remain stopped until the light stops flashing and any barrier is fully raised. Never attempt to cross around a lowered barrier.

Question 8Traffic signs, signals and road markings

What does a yellow box junction marking with a criss-cross pattern mean?

  1. Parking is allowed inside the box for short stops
  2. You may queue inside it if the light ahead is red
  3. The area is reserved for buses and taxis
  4. You must not enter unless your exit is clear, except when turning right Correct answer.

Explanation

A yellow box junction is designed to keep the crossing clear of queuing traffic. You may enter only if your exit beyond the box is clear, so you do not block it. The usual exception allows you to wait in the box when turning right and only oncoming traffic prevents the turn.

Question 9Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A sign shows a red circle with a white horizontal bar on a blue background. What does it prohibit?

  1. Overtaking on the right
  2. Entry for all vehicles Correct answer.
  3. Parking at any time
  4. Use of audible warning devices

Explanation

The red circle with a white horizontal bar is the internationally recognised no-entry sign. It means vehicles must not enter the road from that direction. It is often placed at the exit of a one-way street or a restricted access road.

Question 10Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You are driving and see a broken white line on your side and a solid white line on the opposite side of the centre. What does this allow?

  1. Only oncoming traffic may cross to overtake
  2. You may cross to overtake when it is safe, but oncoming traffic may not Correct answer.
  3. Both sides may cross freely at any time
  4. Neither side may cross the centre line

Explanation

Where a broken line and a solid line run together, each driver obeys the line nearest to them. A broken line on your side permits you to cross when it is safe and legal to do so. The solid line restricts the traffic on the other side.

Question 11Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A driver approaching a pedestrian crossing sees a sign showing a person walking on a blue square. This sign indicates:

  1. A footpath closed to pedestrians
  2. A pedestrian crossing ahead where pedestrians have priority Correct answer.
  3. A place where pedestrians are prohibited
  4. A compulsory route for pedestrians only

Explanation

A blue square showing a walking figure marks a pedestrian crossing. Drivers must give way to pedestrians on or about to use the crossing. The sign is informational, telling you to expect people crossing the road.

Question 12Traffic signs, signals and road markings

What is the meaning of a sign showing a red triangle with a black exclamation mark inside?

  1. A compulsory stop ahead
  2. A roundabout ahead
  3. A toll booth ahead
  4. A general danger or hazard warning Correct answer.

Explanation

The red triangle with an exclamation mark is a general warning sign used where a specific symbol is not available. It tells you to expect an unspecified hazard and to reduce speed. A supplementary plate beneath it often names the hazard.

Question 13Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You are on a road with a sign showing a bicycle in a blue circle. This means:

  1. A cycle race is in progress
  2. Cyclists are prohibited from using the road
  3. A compulsory cycle route or cycle lane follows Correct answer.
  4. Cyclists must give way to motor vehicles

Explanation

A blue circular sign with a bicycle indicates a route or lane that cyclists must use. It is a mandatory instruction sign, not a prohibition. Drivers should expect cyclists in that area and give them space.

Question 14Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A traffic light shows a green arrow pointing left while the main light is red. What should you do?

  1. Proceed in the direction of the arrow if the way is clear Correct answer.
  2. Stop because the main light is red
  3. Proceed straight ahead because green means go
  4. Wait until the main light turns green before moving

Explanation

A green arrow is a protected movement signal. It allows you to proceed only in the direction shown, provided the path is clear. The red main light continues to apply to all other movements.

Question 15Traffic signs, signals and road markings

What does a stop line painted across your lane at a junction require?

  1. You must stop behind the line when the signal or sign requires it Correct answer.
  2. You may cross the line while waiting for a green light
  3. You must stop only if a vehicle is crossing
  4. You may stop anywhere on the line

Explanation

A stop line marks the point beyond which you must not proceed while required to stop. It works with a STOP sign or a red traffic light. You must halt with your vehicle behind the line, not on or past it.

Question 16Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A sign showing a red circle with a black car and a red diagonal line means:

  1. Motor vehicles are prohibited from entering Correct answer.
  2. A car park is available ahead
  3. Cars must not exceed 40 km/h
  4. Cars must use dipped headlights

Explanation

A red ring with a diagonal line is a prohibition sign. The symbol inside identifies what is prohibited, so a car symbol means no motor vehicles of that class may enter. The diagonal line confirms that the restriction is a ban.

Question 17Traffic signs, signals and road markings

At a roundabout, a sign shows three arrows in a circle. When entering, you should:

  1. Give way to traffic already on the roundabout, coming from your left Correct answer.
  2. Always stop before entering, even if the roundabout is empty
  3. Give way to traffic entering from the right
  4. Drive in either direction around the central island

Explanation

In Lebanon traffic circulates to the right around a roundabout, so vehicles already on it approach from your left. You must give way to them before entering. You do not need to stop if the roundabout is clear.

Question 18Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A supplementary plate below a prohibition sign shows a picture of a motorcycle. What does this mean?

  1. Motorcycles are permitted to park there
  2. The prohibition applies only to motorcycles Correct answer.
  3. The prohibition applies to all vehicles except motorcycles
  4. Motorcycles must use a separate lane

Explanation

A supplementary plate beneath a sign narrows the scope of the main sign to the category shown. A motorcycle symbol therefore means the prohibition applies specifically to motorcycles. Without such a plate the sign would apply to all vehicles.

Question 19Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You see a flashing amber light at a pedestrian crossing with no other signals. What is required?

  1. Give way to pedestrians on the crossing and proceed only when it is clear Correct answer.
  2. Stop immediately and wait for the light to change
  3. Sound your horn to warn pedestrians to clear the crossing
  4. Proceed at normal speed because amber means go

Explanation

A flashing amber signal at a pedestrian crossing means you must yield to anyone already on the crossing. You may proceed once the crossing is clear of pedestrians. It does not require an unconditional stop if nobody is crossing.

Question 20Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A zigzag white line painted along the approach to a pedestrian crossing indicates that:

  1. The area is reserved for loading goods
  2. Buses may stop anywhere along the line
  3. You may overtake within the zigzag if the road is clear
  4. Parking and overtaking are prohibited in that area Correct answer.

Explanation

Zigzag lines near a pedestrian crossing keep the approach clear so drivers and pedestrians can see each other. Stopping, parking and overtaking on the zigzag are prohibited. The restriction protects visibility at the crossing.

Question 21Traffic signs, signals and road markings

What does a sign showing a red triangle with a black symbol of a car skidding indicate?

  1. A compulsory winter tyre zone
  2. A parking area for cars
  3. Slippery road surface ahead Correct answer.
  4. A car wash facility ahead

Explanation

The skidding-car triangle warns that the road surface ahead may be slippery, often due to rain, ice or loose material. You should reduce speed and avoid sudden braking or steering. It is a warning sign, not an instruction about equipment.

Question 22Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A lane marked with a white diamond symbol and the word BUS means that:

  1. The lane is for overtaking only
  2. Any vehicle may use the lane during peak hours
  3. The lane is closed to all traffic
  4. The lane is reserved for buses, with other vehicles restricted as signed Correct answer.

Explanation

A lane marked for buses is reserved for public transport and other vehicles expressly permitted by accompanying signs. Other drivers must stay out of it during the hours shown. Entering a reserved lane without authorisation is an offence.

Question 23Traffic signs, signals and road markings

When a traffic light shows a red light together with a green arrow pointing right, you may:

  1. Turn right if the way is clear, while other traffic remains stopped Correct answer.
  2. Proceed in any direction
  3. Turn left only
  4. Proceed straight ahead

Explanation

The green arrow authorises only the movement it indicates, which here is a right turn. Other movements remain subject to the red light. You must still check that the path is clear before turning.

Question 24Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A sign shows a red triangle with a black symbol of a narrowing road on both sides. The correct response is to:

  1. Move to the centre of the road and maintain speed
  2. Stop and wait for a gap in oncoming traffic before proceeding
  3. Increase speed to pass the narrow section quickly
  4. Reduce speed and be prepared for the carriageway to narrow Correct answer.

Explanation

The road-narrows warning tells you the carriageway ahead becomes narrower. You should slow down and adjust your position so you stay within your lane. There is no requirement to stop unless oncoming traffic makes it necessary.

Question 25Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A driver sees double yellow lines along the edge of the carriageway. These indicate that:

  1. The road is a one-way street
  2. Parking is prohibited at all times Correct answer.
  3. Loading is permitted at any time
  4. Parking is allowed for up to 30 minutes

Explanation

Double yellow lines along the kerb mark a continuous parking prohibition. They apply at all times unless a sign states otherwise. Single yellow lines usually restrict parking during specified hours.

Question 26Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You approach a junction where a traffic officer stands facing you with an arm raised vertically, palm toward you. The traffic light for your lane is green. What must you do?

  1. Continue through the junction because the green light gives priority over the officer
  2. Stop and wait until the officer lowers the arm, even though the light is green Correct answer.
  3. Sound the horn and proceed slowly around the officer
  4. Stop only if a pedestrian is crossing in front of the officer

Explanation

Directions given by a uniformed officer controlling traffic override the indications of traffic lights and signs. An arm raised with the palm facing oncoming traffic means that traffic must stop. You stay stopped until the officer signals that you may proceed, regardless of a green light.

Question 27Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A road sign shows a red circle containing a black motorcycle, with no diagonal bar. What does this sign mean?

  1. A motorcycle repair area is ahead
  2. Motorcycles must use a separate lane ahead
  3. Only motorcycles may use the road ahead Correct answer.
  4. Motorcycles are prohibited from entering

Explanation

In the red-circle regulatory system, a red circle alone imposes a requirement rather than a ban; a diagonal red bar is what creates a prohibition. A black motorcycle inside a plain red circle therefore means the road is reserved for motorcycles. A blue circle would be the version used to indicate a compulsory motorcycle route.

Question 28Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You see a white line across your lane made of short dashes with wide gaps, repeated across the road. What does this marking mean?

  1. The line marks the edge of a private property
  2. The lane ahead is reserved for buses
  3. You must give way to traffic on the road you are joining Correct answer.
  4. You must stop before the line at all times

Explanation

A broken give-way line, drawn as short dashes with wide gaps, tells drivers to yield to traffic on the road they are joining or crossing. It is distinct from a solid stop line, which requires a complete stop. If visibility is poor, you should still slow enough to be able to give way safely.

Question 29Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A rectangular blue sign shows a white symbol of a pedestrian walking on a footpath beside a white bicycle symbol. Where is this sign typically placed?

  1. At the entrance to a bicycle-only track with no pedestrian access
  2. At a crossing where only pedestrians may cross
  3. At a point where cyclists must dismount and walk
  4. At the start of a route shared by pedestrians and cyclists Correct answer.

Explanation

On a blue rectangular sign, white symbols indicate a route or facility provided for those users. Showing a pedestrian and a bicycle together means the path is shared. When using such a shared route, cyclists should moderate speed and give way to pedestrians where space is limited.

Question 30Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You are driving behind a bus that has just stopped at a marked bus stop with its hazard lights on. What is the safest and most appropriate response?

  1. Sound the horn to warn passengers not to step out
  2. Stop behind the bus and wait until it pulls away
  3. Slow down, check for passengers stepping off, and pass only when it is clear Correct answer.
  4. Overtake immediately while the bus is stationary

Explanation

Passengers leaving a stopped bus may step into the road, sometimes from in front of the vehicle where the driver cannot see them. The correct approach is to reduce speed, watch for people around the bus, and pass only when you have confirmed it is safe. Passing at speed or sounding the horn does not remove the hazard.

Question 31Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A sign shows a red triangle containing a black symbol of two children walking. What does this warning require of you?

  1. Children are prohibited from walking along this road
  2. Children must use the footpath on the left
  3. A school or playground is nearby, so reduce speed and watch for children Correct answer.
  4. You must stop and wait for a crossing patrol

Explanation

A red triangle is a warning sign, so the children symbol alerts you that children are likely to be in or near the road, usually because of a school or play area. The appropriate response is to slow down and be ready to stop. Warning signs advise caution; they do not impose a ban or a duty to stop.

Question 32Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You are driving on a two-way road and the centre line on your side is a single broken line, while the line on the opposite side is solid. What does this arrangement mean for you?

  1. You may cross only if the vehicle ahead signals you to do so
  2. You may cross the centre line to overtake when it is safe Correct answer.
  3. You must move into the left lane to overtake
  4. You may never cross the centre line under any circumstances

Explanation

Where the line nearest you is broken and the line on the other side is solid, the restriction applies to traffic coming the other way. You may cross the broken line to overtake when you have a clear view and it is safe. The solid line on the far side forbids opposing traffic from crossing toward you.

Question 33Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A circular sign with a blue background shows a white arrow curving to the left. What does this sign require?

  1. You must turn left at the junction ahead Correct answer.
  2. Left-turning traffic must give way
  3. Turn left ahead is prohibited
  4. A left bend is approaching, so slow down

Explanation

Blue circular signs give mandatory instructions. A white arrow curving left on a blue circle therefore orders you to turn left at the junction ahead. It differs from a warning sign for a bend, which would be a red triangle, and from a prohibition, which would include a red diagonal bar.

Question 34Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You are approaching a junction and see a large white triangle painted on the road surface pointing toward you, with its base nearest your vehicle. What does it indicate?

  1. A give-way point where you must yield to crossing traffic Correct answer.
  2. A speed hump begins at the marking
  3. A pedestrian crossing is immediately ahead
  4. A stop line requiring a complete halt

Explanation

A transverse triangle painted on the approach, with the apex pointing toward oncoming drivers, warns of a give-way line ahead. You should reduce speed and be prepared to yield to traffic on the road you are joining. A mandatory stop is marked differently, by a solid line and a STOP sign.

Question 35Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A sign shows a red circle containing the black number 60. What does it mean?

  1. The maximum permitted speed is 60 km/h Correct answer.
  2. Speed limit of 60 km/h applies only to heavy vehicles
  3. The minimum permitted speed is 60 km/h
  4. Advisory speed on the bend ahead is 60 km/h

Explanation

A red circle is a regulatory sign, and a number inside it sets the maximum legal speed in kilometres per hour. You must not exceed that speed, although you may drive more slowly if conditions require. A minimum speed would be shown on a blue circular sign.

Question 36Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You are waiting at a red light in the left lane of a three-lane one-way street. A green arrow pointing straight ahead appears while the main light stays red. What may you do?

  1. Proceed straight but only after sounding the horn
  2. Proceed straight ahead, yielding to any traffic already in the junction Correct answer.
  3. Wait until the main light turns green before moving
  4. Turn right because the arrow overrides the lane direction

Explanation

A green arrow authorises movement only in the direction it indicates, even while the main light remains red. You may proceed straight ahead, but you must still yield to vehicles or pedestrians already lawfully in the junction. The arrow does not permit any movement other than the one shown.

Question 37Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A broken white line separates two lanes travelling in the same direction on a dual carriageway. What does this line permit?

  1. No lane changing at any point along the line
  2. Driving on either side of the line in both directions
  3. Use of the right-hand lane only by overtaking vehicles
  4. Changing lanes when it is safe to do so Correct answer.

Explanation

A broken white line between lanes moving in the same direction is a lane divider that may be crossed. You may change lanes when you have checked mirrors and blind spots and it is safe. A solid white line between such lanes restricts lane changing.

Question 38Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A driver sees a sign showing a red triangle with a black symbol of a traffic signal ahead. Why is this warning important on an unfamiliar road?

  1. It indicates that you must turn at the next junction
  2. It warns you to expect a signal-controlled junction and be ready to stop Correct answer.
  3. It tells you the signals are permanently out of order
  4. It means the signals apply only to pedestrians

Explanation

The signal-ahead warning prepares drivers for a junction where lights control traffic, often where sight distance is limited. Anticipating the signals lets you adjust speed so you can stop safely if they change. The warning does not change the meaning of the lights themselves.

Question 39Traffic signs, signals and road markings

You are driving in heavy rain at night and the lane markings ahead become difficult to see. What is the most appropriate action?

  1. Move to the centre of the road to use the centre line as a guide
  2. Reduce speed and increase the gap to the vehicle ahead so you can stop within the visible distance Correct answer.
  3. Switch on high beam continuously to improve marking visibility
  4. Maintain your speed and follow the tail lights of the vehicle ahead closely

Explanation

When markings and the road edge are hard to see, you should slow down so that you can stop within the distance you can see to be clear. Increasing the following gap gives more time to react to hazards that appear suddenly. Following another vehicle closely reduces your view and your stopping margin.

Question 40Traffic signs, signals and road markings

A solid white line runs along the left edge of your lane, and beyond it is a hard shoulder. What is the normal rule for crossing this edge line?

  1. You may park on the hard shoulder for short breaks at any time
  2. You may use the hard shoulder as a normal driving lane whenever traffic is heavy
  3. You should stay within the line and cross it only in an emergency or when directed Correct answer.
  4. You must cross it whenever a vehicle behind wishes to overtake

Explanation

A solid edge line marks the boundary of the running lane, and the area beyond it is reserved for emergencies and authorised stops. You should remain within the line and cross it only if you have broken down or are directed to do so. Using the shoulder as a running lane creates a serious hazard.

Question 41Right-of-way and intersection rules

At an unmarked intersection in Lebanon where two vehicles arrive at the same moment, which vehicle must yield the right-of-way?

  1. The larger vehicle
  2. The vehicle travelling faster
  3. The vehicle approaching from the right
  4. The vehicle approaching from the left Correct answer.

Explanation

At an unmarked intersection the general rule gives priority to the vehicle coming from the right, so the driver on the left must slow down and give way. This keeps a single predictable rule so both drivers act the same way.

Question 42Right-of-way and intersection rules

You are driving straight through an intersection and a vehicle coming from the opposite direction is turning left across your path. Who has priority?

  1. You, going straight Correct answer.
  2. Whichever vehicle signals first
  3. The turning vehicle
  4. Whichever vehicle is closer

Explanation

A vehicle turning left across oncoming traffic must yield to vehicles going straight or turning right. The straight-through driver keeps priority and the left-turning driver waits for a safe gap.

Question 43Right-of-way and intersection rules

A traffic light shows a steady red circle and a green arrow pointing right. What does this allow you to do?

  1. Proceed in any direction
  2. Proceed straight ahead freely
  3. Proceed only in the direction of the arrow, after yielding Correct answer.
  4. Wait until the whole signal turns green

Explanation

A green arrow authorises movement only in the direction it points, and you must still yield to pedestrians and traffic already lawfully in the intersection. Going straight or left on that arrow is not permitted.

Question 44Right-of-way and intersection rules

What must you do when you approach a roundabout and see a vehicle already circulating inside it?

  1. Enter and force the circulating vehicle to slow
  2. Stop completely until the roundabout is empty
  3. Yield and let the circulating vehicle pass Correct answer.
  4. Sound the horn and continue

Explanation

Traffic already inside the roundabout has priority, so entering drivers yield and merge into a safe gap. You do not need an empty roundabout, only a gap that does not force others to brake.

Question 45Right-of-way and intersection rules

A pedestrian has stepped onto a marked zebra crossing you are approaching. What is required?

  1. Flash your lights so the pedestrian hurries
  2. Slow down but keep moving
  3. Continue if you can pass behind the pedestrian
  4. Stop and give way to the pedestrian Correct answer.

Explanation

Drivers must stop for pedestrians on a marked crossing and let them cross safely. Passing behind someone on the crossing is unsafe because their path and timing can change.

Question 46Right-of-way and intersection rules

You are joining a main road from a private driveway. Who must yield?

  1. You, the driver leaving the driveway Correct answer.
  2. Nobody, because driveways are not intersections
  3. Whoever arrives second
  4. Traffic on the main road

Explanation

A driver leaving a private driveway or property crosses the footway and enters a public road, so that driver yields to all road traffic and pedestrians. Traffic on the main road keeps its priority.

Question 47Right-of-way and intersection rules

An emergency vehicle approaches from behind with flashing lights and a siren. What should you do at an intersection?

  1. Speed up to stay ahead of it
  2. Stop immediately wherever you are
  3. Brake sharply inside the junction
  4. Give way safely without blocking the junction Correct answer.

Explanation

You must make room for an emergency vehicle, but stopping inside a junction can block crossing traffic and create a new hazard. The correct response is to clear the junction first, then pull over safely.

Question 48Right-of-way and intersection rules

A stop sign faces you at an intersection and no other traffic is visible. What is required?

  1. Come to a complete stop, then proceed when safe Correct answer.
  2. Slow down and continue if the road looks clear
  3. Stop only if another vehicle is present
  4. Stop only at night

Explanation

A stop sign requires a full stop at the marked line or at the edge of the junction, regardless of whether traffic is visible. After stopping you proceed only when the way is clear.

Question 49Right-of-way and intersection rules

Two vehicles reach a T-junction at the same time, one on the through road and one emerging from the terminating road. Who has priority?

  1. The vehicle emerging from the terminating road
  2. The vehicle turning right
  3. The vehicle on the through road Correct answer.
  4. The vehicle that signals first

Explanation

At a T-junction the road that ends must yield to traffic on the continuous through road. The emerging driver waits for a safe gap before joining or crossing.

Question 50Right-of-way and intersection rules

You want to turn right at an intersection while a pedestrian is crossing the road you intend to enter. What must you do?

  1. Sound the horn to warn the pedestrian
  2. Edge forward and pass in front of the pedestrian
  3. Complete the turn before the pedestrian reaches your lane
  4. Wait and let the pedestrian finish crossing Correct answer.

Explanation

A turning driver must give way to pedestrians crossing the road being entered, so you wait until they have cleared your path. Turning across a crossing pedestrian is a common cause of collisions.
