Naturally one (experienced driver) always has to be aware of suroundings, keep eyes peeled to intersections re: cars who may run red light and go through your green. Green doesn't mean go, it means go when safe and logical...and don't doddle, either. Anticipate early, experience and years on road are the only safe bet. New drivers do not have the proper brain capacity and logical know how/anticipation of danger awareness, basically big empty zeroes........Never assume green means clear as a bell, go for it full steam ahead, always wonder what the idiot who could run the red and T bone you into a slice of bologna could possibly be doing (eating?, on cell phone? texting? just stupid?, etc.)
Also watch for:
- pedestrians in crosswalks
- jay-walkers
- children
- stopped school buses
- other road hazards
What else can I help you with?
What should you do when the light turns red and you are in the middle of an intersection about to turn left?
If you're in the intersection and it is green then turns to yellow/red, it is fine to go. Entering the intersection after it is already yellow is unlawful driving. GA
What should you do when you approach an intersection and the traffic light changes from green to yellow?
When approaching an intersection and the traffic light changes from green to yellow, you should assess your distance from the intersection and your speed. If you can safely stop without skidding, it’s best to do so to avoid entering the intersection on red. However, if you are too close to stop safely, you should proceed through the intersection cautiously. Always be alert for other vehicles or pedestrians that might act unpredictably during this transition.
Can you pass or cross the center line within 100 feet of an intersection?
It is generally not allowed to pass or cross the center line within 100 feet of an intersection. This is to ensure safety and prevent collisions with vehicles entering or exiting the intersection.
When approaching a congested intersection and the light is green the driver should not do?
When approaching a congested intersection with a green light, the driver should not enter the intersection if there is no clear path to proceed. Instead, they should wait until the traffic ahead has cleared to avoid blocking the intersection, which can lead to gridlock and impede the flow of traffic. Additionally, drivers should remain vigilant for pedestrians and other vehicles that may be navigating the area.
What must the driver do when approaching an intersection and seeing the traffic light turn from green to yellow?
When a driver approaches an intersection and sees the traffic light turn from green to yellow, they should prepare to stop if it is safe to do so. If they are too close to the intersection to stop safely, they should proceed through the intersection with caution. It’s important to remain aware of surrounding traffic and pedestrians. Always yield to any vehicles or individuals already in the intersection.
When you have a green light but cross traffic is blocking the intersection what should you do?
Wait until the intersection clears up so you can pass it. Common sense, you wouldn't want to drive into them just because the green light told you to.
As you approach a controlled intersection with a green light what should you do?
As you approach a controlled intersection with a green light, you should slow down and prepare to yield to any pedestrians or vehicles that may be crossing. Ensure that the intersection is clear before proceeding, and be aware of any potential hazards or vehicles that might run a red light. Always be ready to stop if necessary, and maintain a safe speed as you enter the intersection.
Should you only enter an intersection on a green light?
Yes, you should generally only enter an intersection on a green light. This indicates that it is safe to proceed, as other vehicles and pedestrians are expected to yield. However, always be cautious and ensure the intersection is clear before proceeding, as some drivers may ignore traffic signals. Additionally, be prepared to stop for any unexpected situations, even on green.
What does it mean when you see a yellow arrow at an intersection?
A yellow arrow at an intersection means that the signal is about to change from green to red, and you should prepare to stop or yield to oncoming traffic.
What does a red light mean?
It means you should stop and wait for a green light to go through the intersection.
When returning from Sea a green navigational baby should be passed in what manner?
The green buoy should be on the left (port) side of the boat as you are entering port.
Who has the right of way at an intersection when the light turns green?
When the light turns green at an intersection, the vehicles that have the right of way are those going straight or turning right. They should proceed first before vehicles turning left or pedestrians crossing the street.
