Review all 16 questions with answers
  1. Your light turns green while a pedestrian is still lawfully crossing your path. What should you do?

    Correct answer: Wait and yield to the pedestrian.

    A green light does not remove the duty to yield to people already lawfully in the crosswalk.

  2. What does a steady yellow traffic light tell a driver?

    Correct answer: The green movement is ending and red will follow.

    Yellow warns that the green phase is ending. It is not an invitation to speed into the intersection.

  3. No sign prohibits a right turn on red. After stopping, what must you do before turning?

    Correct answer: Yield to pedestrians and traffic moving with the signal.

    A permitted right turn on red requires a stop and yielding to pedestrians and traffic with the right-of-way.

  4. You are on a one-way street facing red and want to turn left onto a one-way street carrying traffic left. No sign forbids it. What is permitted?

    Correct answer: Stop, yield, then turn left when safe.

    Arizona permits this one-way-to-one-way left turn after stopping and yielding, unless a sign prohibits it.

  5. A NO TURN ON RED sign faces your lane. The cross street looks empty. What should you do?

    Correct answer: Wait for a signal that permits your turn.

    A posted prohibition removes the usual permission to turn right after stopping at red.

  6. Every traffic light at the intersection is dark. How should you approach?

    Correct answer: Stop completely, then proceed cautiously when safe.

    An inoperative Arizona traffic signal requires a complete stop before entering the intersection.

  7. Two cars reach a dark-signal intersection from different streets at about the same time. Both stop. Who yields?

    Correct answer: The driver with the other car on the right.

    When an inoperative signal produces a simultaneous arrival, the driver on the left yields to the driver on the right.

  8. You face a flashing red signal. What is required?

    Correct answer: Stop and follow the right-of-way rules for a stop sign.

    Flashing red requires a complete stop; proceed under the rules that apply after stopping at a stop sign.

  9. What should you do at a flashing yellow signal?

    Correct answer: Proceed with caution after checking for hazards.

    Flashing yellow permits cautious movement rather than requiring a stop in every situation.

  10. A pedestrian starts across with the walking-person signal. You want to turn across that crosswalk. What must you do?

    Correct answer: Yield to the pedestrian.

    Drivers must give the right-of-way to pedestrians crossing in the direction of a WALK indication.

    Source: Arizona Revised Statutes 28-646, A(1). ↗

  11. A pedestrian began crossing on WALK, but the hand signal appears before they finish. How should a turning driver respond?

    Correct answer: Allow the pedestrian to finish reaching safety.

    Someone already crossing on WALK may continue to the sidewalk or safety island when DON'T WALK appears.

    Source: Arizona Revised Statutes 28-646, A(2). ↗

  12. A stop-sign intersection has a crosswalk on your side. Where should you make the required stop?

    Correct answer: Before entering that crosswalk.

    Stop before entering the near-side crosswalk so it remains available to pedestrians.

    Source: Arizona Revised Statutes 28-855, B. ↗

  13. There is no crosswalk at a stop sign, but a stop line is clearly marked. Where do you stop?

    Correct answer: At the marked stop line.

    Where no crosswalk exists, Arizona's stop-sign rule specifies the clearly marked stop line.

    Source: Arizona Revised Statutes 28-855, B. ↗

  14. A stop-sign intersection has neither a crosswalk nor a stop line. Where should you stop?

    Correct answer: Before entering, at the nearest point with a view of approaching traffic.

    Without a crosswalk or line, stop before the intersection at the nearest point where approaching traffic can be seen.

    Source: Arizona Revised Statutes 28-855, B. ↗

  15. You approach a yield sign and a vehicle is close enough to conflict with your crossing. What should you do?

    Correct answer: Slow down and yield, stopping if needed.

    Yield signs require a reasonable approach speed and yielding to traffic in the intersection or close enough to be a hazard.

    Source: Arizona Revised Statutes 28-855, C. ↗

  16. A green arrow permits your turn, but another vehicle is still lawfully clearing the intersection. What should you do?

    Correct answer: Yield and make the indicated turn cautiously.

    Even with a green arrow, you must yield to other traffic lawfully using the intersection.
