Zorluk: OrtaPedestrian and Bicycle Signals and Markings

You are driving down a roadway and approach a crosswalk controlled by a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (HAWK signal). The signal is currently displaying two alternating flashing red lights, and the pedestrian has already safely finished crossing your lane onto the sidewalk. What action are you required to take?

  1. Come to a complete stop, yield to any remaining pedestrians, and proceed if the crosswalk is clear.Cevap
  2. B
    Remain completely stopped until the beacon darkens entirely, regardless of pedestrian position.
  3. C
    Slow down and yield right-of-way, but proceed without coming to a full stop since the crosswalk is clear.
  4. D
    Treat the lights as a flashing yellow signal and proceed through the crosswalk at posted speed.

Cevap

Come to a complete stop, yield to any remaining pedestrians, and proceed if the crosswalk is clear.
On a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon, alternating flashing red lights mean stop and proceed when clear. Drivers must bring their vehicle to a complete stop, ensure all pedestrians have cleared the crosswalk, and then may proceed even if the lights are still flashing red.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the signal type and current display phase
The signal is a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon showing alternating flashing red lights.
The alternating flashing red phase indicates that pedestrians have had time to start crossing and drivers are in the clearance interval.
2
Determine legal requirements for alternating flashing red lights
Alternating flashing red lights mandate a full stop, functioning like a stop sign.
Traffic law dictates that flashing red beacons require vehicles to stop completely before proceeding.
3
Evaluate intersection safety and proceed
Because the pedestrian has safely reached the sidewalk and no other hazards exist, the driver may proceed after stopping.
Drivers do not need to stay stopped until the lights go black, provided they have stopped and the crosswalk is clear.
