Traffic Intersections
- 1/25An area where roads meet, cross, or branch at the same level.
This defines an intersection as a crucial point where multiple road segments connect. Drivers should always be prepared for converging or diverging traffic movements within this exposed area.
An intersection equipped with traffic control devices like signals or signs.
At these intersections, traffic flow is managed by signals, signs, or even police hand signals. Compliance with these devices is mandatory for safe and orderly passage.
An intersection unequipped with traffic control devices where right-of-way is not pre-determined.
These intersections operate on a ’give way’ system, requiring drivers to assess the situation and yield to other vehicles. Vigilance is critical due to the absence of explicit traffic controls.
Approaching crossroads not controlled by traffic lights.
When approaching an uncontrolled crossroad, drivers should heighten their awareness and proceed with caution. The absence of signals requires careful observation of all approaching traffic.
Predetermining the lane to pass through an uncontrolled intersection.
To navigate uncontrolled intersections safely, drivers should decide their intended lane and position their vehicle accordingly at an adequate distance before reaching the intersection.
Using mirrors and watching vehicles around when approaching an uncontrolled intersection.
Effective use of mirrors and continuous observation of nearby vehicles are essential for understanding the traffic situation before entering an uncontrolled intersection.
Using light signals to determine the lane at an uncontrolled intersection.
Signalling intentions clearly with vehicle lights helps other drivers anticipate maneuvers at uncontrolled intersections, contributing to safer traffic flow.
Reducing speed when approaching uncontrolled intersections.
Lowering speed significantly when approaching uncontrolled intersections provides more time to react to unexpected situations and ensures better vehicle control.
Complying with traffic policeman hand signals at intersections.
Hand signals from a traffic policeman override all other traffic control devices. Drivers are legally required to comply with these instructions for immediate traffic management.
Complying with road surface signals and markings at an uncontrolled intersection.
Road surface markings provide crucial guidance for lane discipline and right-of-way at uncontrolled intersections. Drivers must respect these markings and yield when necessary.
Stopping at a crossroads when the red light goes on.
A solid red light at a crossroads mandates a complete stop before the stop line. Proceeding is prohibited until the light changes to green.
Being ready to move when the yellow light goes on after the red light.
A yellow light appearing after a red light indicates an imminent change to green. Drivers should be ready to proceed, but not advance until the green light illuminates.
Starting to move when the green light goes on according to the direction determined by the traffic light.
A green light permits drivers to proceed in the direction specified by the traffic light. Drivers should only move when it is safe to do so.
Paying attention and being cautious when moving with a flashing yellow light.
A flashing yellow light indicates caution. Drivers may proceed, but must be highly attentive, yielding to pedestrians and giving way to vehicles that have priority.
Reducing speed and paying attention when a flashing green light is about to end.
A flashing green light signals that the green phase is ending. Drivers should reduce speed, anticipating a yellow or red light, and prepare to stop if necessary.
Approaching an intersection equipped with traffic lights.
Always reduce your speed and remain attentive when approaching traffic lights to be prepared for any changes or hazards, ensuring safe navigation through the intersection.
A red light is flashing at an intersection.
A flashing red light is equivalent to a stop sign, requiring a complete stop. You must yield to all crossing traffic and pedestrians before safely proceeding.
The yellow light flashes after the red light at an intersection.
A yellow light appearing after a red light indicates that the signal is about to turn green. Drivers should prepare to move off, but not proceed until the green light illuminates.
Two vehicles meet at an equal rights intersection, and both are to the left of each other.
At equal rights intersections, where no specific control devices are present, the general rule is to yield to the vehicle on your right to ensure a safe right-of-way.
Exiting from a public or private parking area or fuel station onto a road.
When re-entering a public roadway from a private area, it is mandatory to yield to all existing vehicles and pedestrians on the main road before proceeding.
Changing lanes to ensure safety.
Before initiating any lane change, it is crucial to check your mirrors and blind spots thoroughly. This ensures the intended lane is clear, preventing potential collisions.
Signalling your intention before changing lanes.
Always activate your vehicle’s direction signals to indicate your intention to change lanes. Hand signals can be used as an additional clear indication, enhancing communication with other road users.
Preparing to turn right with your vehicle.
To execute a safe and proper right turn, position your vehicle as close as possible to the right edge of the road. This prevents other vehicles from trying to pass on your right and prepares you for the turn.
Prohibited actions when changing lanes.
It is prohibited and inherently unsafe to occupy or straddle multiple lanes simultaneously during a lane change. Such actions create confusion and risk for other road users.
Driving on a divided two-lane carriageway with continuous lines.
Continuous lines on a divided carriageway indicate a strict prohibition against crossing or driving on them. These markings are in place for safety and to regulate traffic flow.
