Question: When approaching a yellow traffic light, you should:
Answer options:
- Speed up to beat it ✅ Stop if you can do so safely
- Always stop immediately
- Honk and continue
Correct answer: Stop if you can do so safely
Explanation: According to the BC Motor Vehicle Act, a steady yellow light indicates the signal is about to turn red, requiring drivers to stop before entering the intersection unless they cannot do so safely. Stopping if you can do so safely is correct because slamming on the brakes immediately can cause a rear-end collision, while speeding up or honking and continuing are illegal and highly dangerous. ICBC test candidates must understand this distinction, as intersection safety questions are heavily emphasized on the knowledge exam to prevent common collision scenarios.
