When a red light is at a clearly marked stop line or before entering the crosswalk, and if there is no crosswalk then before entering the intersection, you must:

• A. Stop
• B. Go
• C. Yield
• D. Slow down

Answer: (A)

Red lights require a full stop before the marked stop line, crosswalk, or, if there’s no crosswalk, before entering the intersection. This position protects pedestrians and keeps you from entering the intersection when cross traffic could have the right of way. You don’t proceed on red, and you don’t just slow down or yield at a red signal—you stop and wait until the light changes to green (and you’ve checked for pedestrians and cross traffic). Once it’s safe and allowed, you can proceed.
