Topic 3 · Rules of the Road: Traffic Laws in California
When sharing the road with light rail vehicles, you should remember that they:
- Can interrupt traffic lights, so check before turning across the tracks — correct answer
- Must yield to cars because they run on tracks
- Always stop at every intersection
Why
Light rail vehicles have the same rights and responsibilities as other vehicles, can interrupt traffic lights, and must never be turned in front of. (Section 7, Light Rail Vehicles.)
