What is controlled intersections?
Controlled intersections have traffic lights, yield signs or stop signs to control traffic. At a controlled intersection where you face a green light, drive carefully through the intersection at a steady speed. If the light has been green for a while, be prepared to stop when it turns yellow. However, if you are already so close that you cannot stop safely, drive through the intersection with caution. Where you face a red light, come to a complete stop and wait until the light turns green. When you approach an intersection on a main road, and the intersection is blocked with traffic, stop before entering the intersection and wait until the traffic ahead moves on. This does not apply if you are turning left or right. At a controlled intersection where you face a yield sign, slow down or stop if necessary and wait until the way is clear before driving through the intersection. At a controlled intersection where you face a stop sign, come to a complete stop. Drive through the intersection only when the way is clear (Diagram 2-15).
When should drivers come to a complete stop at a two-way stop sign intersection?
Drivers should come to a complete stop at a two-way stop sign intersection when they reach the stop line or before entering the intersection, and yield the right of way to any vehicles that arrived first or are already in the intersection.
What is a partially controlled intersection?
Controlled intersections have traffic lights, yield signs or stop signs to control traffic. At a controlled intersection where you face a green light, drive carefully through the intersection at a steady speed. If the light has been green for a while, be prepared to stop when it turns yellow. However, if you are already so close that you cannot stop safely, drive through the intersection with caution. Where you face a red light, come to a complete stop and wait until the light turns green.

At a controlled intersection where you face a stop sign, come to a complete stop. Drive through the intersection only when the way is clear (Diagram 2-15).
What is the proper procedure to follow when approaching an intersection and yielding the right of way when turning right?
When approaching an intersection and turning right, you should yield to pedestrians and oncoming traffic. Come to a complete stop if necessary, then proceed when it is safe to do so.
At an intersection where there is a two way stop who would be at fault in an accident if the car that was required to stop and a car crossing that is not required to stop collide in the intersection?
It would be the car that was required to stop. That car should make sure it is clear before going through the intersection.
What does a red traffic mean?
It means you're supposed to stop at that intersection and remain stopped while that signal remains red.It means that you are to come to a complete stop at that intersection, and proceed either when that signal changes to green, or, in the case of making a right turn, when the coast is clear and it is safe to proceed (provided right turns on red are permitted at that intersection).
What should you do when you arrive at an intersection with a stop sign"?
When you arrive at an intersection with a stop sign, you should come to a complete stop, look both ways for oncoming traffic, and proceed when it is safe to do so.
How should you react to a flashing red light?
Stop completely before entering the crosswalk or intersection. Then, proceed when you can do so safely. Basically, treat the intersection as if there are stop signs at each corner of the intersection.

A flashing red traffic light at an intersection means?
Traffic approaching the light is to stop. If the way is clear, traffic can then proceed through the intersection.
