Question 490 of 533

What obligations does the truck driver have when approaching an intersection if the green signal changes to the yellow one?

A to hurry the crossing;
B to cross the intersection with reduced speed;
C to stop the truck in front of the stopping marking or the marking for the pedestrian crossing or at the traffic light.

Explanation

In the situation in which the green signal changes to the yellow one, this signal announces the appearance of the red-coloured signal and obliges the drivers of vehicles to stop, and if the vehicle is too close to the intersection at the appearance of the yellow signal and cannot stop in safety conditions, it does not have the obligation to stop. The vehicle must be stopped before the marking for stopping or, as the case may be, for the pedestrian crossing, and in its absence, at the traffic light.

The correct answer is: C

Regulation** - Article 53

(1) When the yellow-coloured signal appears after the green-coloured signal, the driver of the vehicle who approaches the intersection must not pass the places provided in art. 52 paragraph (2), except for the situation in which, at the appearance of the signal, he is so close to those places that he could no longer stop the vehicle in safety conditions.
(2) The intermittent yellow-coloured signal allows the passing, the driver of the vehicle being obliged to drive with the reduced speed, to respect the meaning of the road signalling and of the traffic rules applicable in that place.
