GENERAL Learning Environment Category B (B, B1)
Question 786 of 1208

Is permitted changing the direction of travel to the left by the driver of the motor vehicle correctly positioned on the traffic lane, if the traffic light for this maneuver indicates the green signal, and the one for the direction ahead, the red signal?

A yes, because the signal addressed to him is green;
B no, because one of the signals is red;
C no, because the traffic lights are out of phase.

Explanation

From the statement of the question it results that the respective driver of the motor vehicle is in an intersection regulated with traffic lights and has positioned correctly on the lane for the left turn. It must be known that under each traffic light an additional panel is installed, thus the signal of the traffic light will be respected by those whose direction of travel is found on these additional panels. In this case we must respect the signal of the traffic light for the turn to the left, a traffic light that indicates the green colour, as specified in the statement of the question.

Therefore, for the respective driver of the motor vehicle is permitted the passing through the intersection to perform the left turn. For those who wish to travel straight ahead it is prohibited the entering into the intersection, because the signal for this direction indicates the red colour.

The correct answer is: A

Regulation** - Article 52

(1) The red colour signal prohibits passing.

Regulation** - Article 49

On the red or green lamps of the traffic lights black arrows may be applied which indicate the directions of travel corresponding to them. In this case the prohibition or the permission of passing imposed by the light signal is limited to the direction or the directions indicated by these arrowsThe same meaning is held by the arrows applied on the additional panels that accompany, at the lower part, the traffic lights. The arrow for going straight ahead has the tip upwards.
