The video is wrong you cross a white line during the turn you are meant to wait behind the white line. Its also wrong to turn while another car is turning that can cash a crash you have to wait for all the cars to turn.

I learned something really valuable at 4:28. I wasn’t expecting any car in that opposite right turn lane to be going straight ahead, but the black car did. I guess it’s important to anticipate some cars heading straight were waiting behind the cars going right, so even if there are no other cars going straight that you have to give way to, there might be some sneaky ones that appear! Hope that makes sense!

@gsau3000 Жыл бұрын

0:58 For this reason, the rule at an intersection is not just to give way to oncoming traffic but also to vehicles still in the intersection that may be completing their turn. The mistake drivers make while waiting for a safe oncoming gap is thinking that now that their light is red, they cannot finish the turn. When in fact, they MUST finish the turn if they are in the intersection. Back in the 80s, I was waiting to leave an intersection and was T-boned when the other driver's light turned green. As he was already on the move when it changed, he went through at speed and hit me. As a young driver, I learned the hard way about the above rule. The road rules are designed so that NO DRIVER SHOULD BE LEFT STRANDED IN AN INTERSECTION if followed correctly.

@gregfreeman5568 Жыл бұрын

Although the rules state: "If a traffic-control signal facing a driver displays a circular green signal, the driver must, in accordance with these regulations and if it is safe to do so - (a) proceed straight ahead; or (b) turn left; or (c) turn right (including making a U turn if permitted)." The important thing here is, "if it is safe to do so", the Green light car should have slowed and allowed the other vehicle to complete their turn.

I wanted to turn right over a tram track to do a uturn. Usually there is a green arrow. Tonight, there was no arrow - only a green circle. I waited a full cycle - green, red and then green again and still no arrow. So I proceeded when there was a break in the oncoming traffic. I'm not sure if that was correct, but I was holding the line up behind me.. felt very unsure about it. Maybe the arrow was not working?

@DrivingSchoolWA - What should be done when you are waiting in front of the white line at the intersection giving way to traffic from opposite direction till it is safe to cross, but then there is a pile-up on the other side with lots of opposite oncoming vehicles turning left and there is no space left for you to turn and fit in that lane anymore when it is safe for you turn or the light has jsut turned amber/red. If you commit and turn when the green light turned amber/red, then you will be literally blocking the intersection as well as the pedestrian crossing. also you are stranded ahead of you white solid line and can't reverse back? What should be done in similar situations?

Once you've entered the intersection, you can take as long as you need to exit it, the point was that once your light goes red, you've got about 3 seconds before it lets the cross traffic go, so you probably want to get out of the intersection before that. However, there are situation like when the intersection is blocked and you can't make it through, or a bunch of cars run the red light and you might need to wait longer - however these are extreme rare. Most of the time you'll be fine once you can be sure the cars across from you are going to stop at the light.

This is probably the most common scenario at these types of intersections as your view is blocked to the oncoming traffic going straight by the other cars turning right. To answer your question...you do NOT stay in the middle of the road until it goes green again as you will be then blocking all the traffic on the crossroad. As shown later in the video, it is ok to turn right on a red signal if you are already in the middle as you have around 3secs until the crossroad lights turn green. Both oncoming lanes more often than not will be stopped (as the lights turned red for them as well) in front of you allowing you safe passage to turn right. This is the same if there is another car from the oncoming direction who has 'half completed' their right turn

I'm into the comment section just to check if anyone told this. I'm glad that the instructor told this. Processing to the middle of the intersection and hoping the traffic would clear is risky. Even though the lights change at the time time for the cars coming in the opposite directions, sometimes the cars in the opposite direction may not slow down and utilise all the time until the lights turn red. You have crossed the white line when it was green and the lights where red before you crossed the intersection, technically this shouldn't lead to a ticket as you didn't cross the red line but practically you would end up in middle of the intersection and cross it when it's red.

Yeah, it's a bit tricky when you see someone slowing down knowing that their light is changing, but the silver car driver did everything wrong. They could have seen their indicatr (if they had one on)

i dont understand why drive through at 7:12, it will turn Green after?

@DrivingSchoolWA Ай бұрын

because you have to clear the intersection if you commited to turning, otherwise you'll block the intersection

What do you do if you get caught in the intersection ?

Hi, if you are in an intersection and the light changes while you are waiting, wait for the oncoming traffic to stop and finish your turn as soon and safely as possible. The rule is that YOU MUST complete your turn. Consider the potential disaster if you don't. For your protection, there is also a rule that says that you must not enter a blocked intersection. This includes by cars waiting to turn and by cars completing their turn. No matter what colour your traffic light is and which direction they are going. Also, NEVER enter an intersection where there is no clear exit, ie banked up traffic waiting at a railway crossing. In this case you must wait behind the line until there is a space for you on the other side. DO NOT be intimidated by the a55hole honking his horn behind you because it's your safety you are responsible for. Cheers

This is why Perth Intersections sre dumb.. should implement a Michigan Style turning manueavor, where right turns can only be made by going forward, into a little U turn pocket lane to turn back and turn left.. Otherwise just have a turning lane and a turning arrow.

You wait until it's clear then make the turn, make sure traffic on the other side is actually stopping before turning, doesn't matter if you have to wait until after it's red to turn, he explains it at 6:50.
