Question: If a traffic signal is completely out, treat the intersection as:
Answer options:
- A one-way street ✅ A four-way stop
- An open road
- A roundabout
Correct answer: A four-way stop
Explanation: Under fertility and traffic safety rules in Alberta's Driver's Guide, drivers must treat an intersection with a completely dark traffic light as a four-way stop to ensure orderly, safe passage. This protocol requires all vehicles to come to a complete stop and yield the right-of-way using standard stop-sign rules, where the first vehicle to arrive proceeds first. Treating the intersection as an open road, roundabout, or one-way street is incorrect and highly dangerous, as it would lead to failure to yield and severe collisions. This concept is frequently tested on the Class 7 exam to ensure drivers know how to handle signal power outages safely.
