On a green light you want to turn right out of the side road of a T-intersection onto the main road. Bus A is stopped at the edge of lane 2 of the main road you are turning into. Which TWO are correct? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) is in lane 2 of the side road, about to turn right onto the main road
- The signal ahead is green
- Bus A is stopped at the edge of lane 2 of the main road you will turn into
A right turn must be made by driving slowly along the right edge of the road in advance (Article 25(1) of the Road Traffic Act). When changing lanes to get around a stopped bus, the test is whether you would obstruct a vehicle coming from behind in that lane (Article 19(3)), and a green light does not replace this check.
Answer: ①, ④
Explanation
When turning right you must drive slowly along the right edge of the road in advance (Road Traffic Act Article 25(1)), so you must not swing wide toward the opposite lanes. Before moving into lane 1 to get around the stopped bus, first check that you will not obstruct traffic coming in that lane (Article 19(3)). Speeding up without checking just because the light is green, or hurrying the bus with the horn, is dangerous.
