1. A red arrow displayed on a traffic light means that:

A driver must proceed slowly through the intersection.

A driver must stop and then proceed when the way is clear.

A driver must stop and then proceed when the signal changes to a green light or green arrow.

A driver may turn in the direction that the red arrow is pointing.

Unless a posted sign indicates otherwise, a traffic signal displaying a red arrow means that drivers must come to a full stop and remain stopped until a green light or green arrow appears.

2. When passing other vehicles:

Check your mirrors and blind spots.

Honk your horn at least three times.

Re-enter your lane within 10 feet of the passed vehicle.

There is no need to signal.

Before passing another vehicle, check your mirrors and blind spots. Before changing lanes, activate the appropriate turn signal. Re-enter the lane when you can see the front of the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror.

3. When faced with an oncoming car to the left and a bicyclist to the right, you should:

Pull onto the shoulder.

Split the difference.

Let the car pass and then pass the bike.

Pass the bike quickly.

When there is more than one potential hazard on the road, you should ensure that you only have to deal with one of them at a time. For example, when there is a bicyclist on the right that you want to pass and an oncoming car to the left, you should not try to squeeze between both at the same time. Instead, let the oncoming car pass, and then pass the bicyclist.

4. Railroad crossings should always be considered:

Safe to cross, as it is unlikely that a train will be coming.

Dangerous.

Safe locations to park a car.

A place where it is required to stop

Railroad crossings are always dangerous. Drivers should always look and listen for trains approaching from either direction on all railroad tracks. Always follow the directions indicated by signs, signals, and flaggers. Never proceed past a railroad crossing until you are certain it is safe to do so.

5. You are waiting to turn left at a multilane intersection and opposing traffic is blocking your view. You should:

Accelerate rapidly when the first lane you need to cross is clear.

Wait until you can see all the lanes you need to cross before going ahead with your turn.

Wait for an oncoming driver to wave you across the intersection.

Edge your car into each lane of opposing traffic as soon as it clears.

You should never start a left turn until you can see that all the lanes you need to cross are clear and that you can safely make the turn.

6. If an officer is directing traffic at a working traffic light, drivers should:

Follow the directions indicated by the traffic light.

Follow the directions given by the officer.

Honk at the officer.

Check to see what the cars next to them are doing.

Traffic signals are placed at intersections to keep traffic moving and to help prevent crashes. Drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists must obey these signals, except in instances when an officer is directing traffic.
