At an intersection with an unprotected left turn sign, you want to turn left on a green light. Two-wheeled vehicle A is coming straight from the opposite direction, and pedestrians are crossing the crosswalk of the road you will turn into. Which TWO are correct? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) is in lane 1, about to turn left
- Green (circular) light; an unprotected left turn sign is posted at the intersection
- Two-wheeled vehicle A is coming straight in the opposite lane 2
- Pedestrians are crossing the crosswalk of the road you will turn into
An unprotected left turn may be made on a green light, but only without obstructing traffic from the opposite direction (Annexes 2 and 6 of the Enforcement Rule). Treat a small two-wheeled vehicle the same as any other vehicle, and do not overlook pedestrians on the crosswalk of the road you are turning into (Article 27(2) of the Road Traffic Act).
Answer: ②, ④
Explanation
Where an unprotected left turn sign is posted, you may turn left on a green (circular) light, but only carefully and without obstructing traffic coming from the opposite direction (Enforcement Rule, Annexes 2 and 6). So turn after the oncoming two-wheeled vehicle A has passed, and at the crosswalk of the road you enter you must not obstruct pedestrians crossing on their signal (Road Traffic Act Article 27(2)). Waiting for an arrow signal is unnecessary, and hurrying pedestrians with the horn is wrong.
