Question 1

At an intersection with a traffic signal, how far must a pedestrian be from the lane you are turning into before you can start your turn?

Accepted Answer

When turning at an intersection with a traffic signal, if a pedestrian is in the lane you intend to turn into, you must wait until they are at least six feet away. This rule ensures a safe distance and prevents potential conflicts with pedestrians.

Question 2

You are driving on a divided highway where the roadways are separated by a painted median strip. If you approach a school bus with flashing lights stopped on the opposite roadway, what action should you take?

Accepted Answer

A painted median strip is not considered a physical barrier. Therefore, you must stop for a school bus with flashing lights, even if it's on the opposite roadway, as children might cross the painted strip.
