While passing through an intersection, the front of your vehicle has already entered the intersection when the vehicle signal changes from green to yellow. What is the correct way to drive?
💡 Hint
The basic meaning of a yellow light is to stop just before the stop line, crosswalk or intersection, but there is a separate rule for when any part of the vehicle has already entered the intersection (Enforcement Rule, Appendix 2). Think about what danger arises if you stop or reverse inside the intersection.
Answer: ①
Explanation
According to Appended Table 2 of the Enforcement Rule, on a yellow light vehicles must stop before the stop line, crosswalk, or intersection, but if any part of the vehicle has already entered the intersection, it must promptly proceed out of it. Stopping or reversing inside the intersection blocks crossing and following traffic and raises the risk of a crash.
