Questions (2)

1. If a traffic light has been green for a long time:

It will probably stay green as you approach.
It is likely broken.
It is likely that the light will soon change to yellow. ✓
It is likely the light will skip yellow and change from green to red.

Answer: C. It is likely that the light will soon change to yellow.

If a traffic light has been green for a long time, expect it to soon change to yellow. The handbook tells drivers to look far ahead and treat a long-lasting green as a sign that the light will probably change before they arrive. It says to start slowing down and be ready to stop. Since the change is expected as you approach, the best match is that yellow is likely coming soon. The manual does not say the light is broken or that it will skip yellow.

2. Emergency exit signs:

May sometimes be hidden by cargo on the bus.
Do not need to be displayed because the purpose of an emergency exit is always clear.
Should be painted blue.
Should be clearly visible and identifiable. ✓

Answer: D. Should be clearly visible and identifiable.

Emergency exit signs should be clearly visible and identifiable. The handbook says the "Emergency Exit" sign on an emergency door must be clearly visible, and it also warns never to drive with an open emergency exit door or window. Since passengers need to find and use that exit in a hurry, the sign has to stay in plain sight and easy to recognize. Nothing in the rules allows cargo to block it or treats the exit as obvious without a sign.
