Traffic in front.

The light for the pedestrian crossing has changed to red.

The traffic lights.

I am ready for the possibility of having to stop.

Correct Wrong!

Explanation: Since you are driving in a built up area and have had an unobstructed view of the traffic lights, which have been green for a long time, you should be aware that they can change to amber before you reach the junction. One sign of this is the lights for the pedestrian crossing is red. Prepare to brake and stop. If you continue into the junction when the lights are amber, you may cause an inconvenience to other traffic in the junction.

I speed up.

I sound my horn.

I brake.

I pay special attention to the pedestrians.

Correct Wrong!

Explanation: Even though pedestrians still have a red light, there is a risk that a pedestrian will cross the road, as the lights are turning green for pedestrians. Especially if the pedestrian has seen that your lights have changed to amber and expects you to stop. Note that this pedestrian crossing is wider than usual.

You want to turn right at the traffic lights. What do you do?

I speed up and turn right.

I stop at the stop line.

I brake.

Correct Wrong!

Explanation: The traffic lights have changed from green to amber which means stop. You should therefore look behind in your mirrors and stop at the stop line. Here, traffic behind is not close, so it's safe to stop.

I move into the junction and stop behind the bus.

I pay special attention to the traffic lights.

I should only enter the junction if I am confident that I can get all the way across while the lights are green.

I drive up to the stop line and stop.

Correct Wrong!

Explanation: Since the pedestrian and bicycle signal has changed to red, you must anticipate that your lights will soon change to red. You can't be sure that you can cross the junction before the lights change to amber and red. You must therefore stop at the stop line.

You are close to the junction and driving 60 km/h. What do you do?

I brake so I can stop at the stop line.

I continue across the junction.

I speed up.

Correct Wrong!

Explanation: The lights are amber and about to turn to red. You are so close to the stop line that in order to stop, you would have to brake very hard. The lorry behind you is very close and has a longer braking distance than you. Therefore, you must continue through the junction at the same speed, as you are not allowed to speed up.

You are driving approximately 50 km/h. How do you continue?

I pay special attention to the traffic lights.

I pay special attention to the vehicle in the junction.

I speed up.

I wait to enter the junction until the vehicle in the junction has left.

Correct Wrong!

Explanation: Red and amber together means stop, but the lights are turning green. Green means go, but only if the road is clear, i.e. if the junction is clear. You should therefore wait to enter the junction until the vehicle crossing your path in the junction is gone.

You are driving 40 km/h and going straight on at the traffic lights. There is no one behind you. How do you continue?

I continue at the same speed, straight on at the junction.

I speed up because the lights are turning green.

I stop at the stop line.

I brake because the lights are turning red.

Correct Wrong!

Explanation: An amber light means "STOP" if it is possible to stop without danger. If the lights were turning green, both amber and red would be showing. Here, there is no danger, no traffic behind and plenty of room to stop in time. There is a risk that the oncoming car, waiting to turn will pull out in front of you, expecting you to stop for amber.
