GENERAL Learning Environment Category B (B, B1)
Question 265 of 1208

If the traffic light in operation is installed on the other side of the intersections, the driver of the vehicle:

A is not obliged to respect the meaning of the light signals, because they are not addressed to him;
B is obliged to respect the meaning of the light signals, only if the traffic light is accompanied by an additional sign which indicates the directions to which the signals are addressed;
C is obliged to respect the meaning of its light signals, if another traffic light installed at the entrance to the intersections has in operation a similar signal.

Explanation

The traffic lights that emit light signals for directing the traffic in the intersections are installed obligatorily before the intersections, so that they are visible from a distance of at least 50 meters from the intersections. These can be repeated in the middle, above or on the other side of the intersections. Therefore, if the traffic light is repeated on the other side of the intersections and has the signal similar to the one installed before the intersections, the driver of the vehicle will respect its meaning. These traffic lights repeated in the middle, above or on the other side of the intersections have the role of facilitating the visualization of the signals by all the participants in traffic to whom they are addressed.

The correct answer is: C
