Stop and wait for the light to change.

Make a U-turn because the intersection is closed.

Drive carefully through the intersection.

Prepare to stop; the light is about to turn red.

A flashing yellow light means that you should proceed through the intersection slowly and with caution. Scan your eyes across traffic in both directions.

53. You may drive around the gates at a railroad crossing:

When the train has passed.

Under no circumstances.

When the lights have stopped flashing.

When other drivers drive around the gates.

You are required to stop at all railroad crossings when signals warn of an approaching train. These signals may include flashing red lights, a lowered crossing gate, a flagger signaling, or a train’s audible signal of warning. Do not attempt to go around a lowered gate.

54. As you drive, you're required to stop your vehicle:

At an intersection with a stop sign.

Where there is a red light.

Situations where motorists are required to stop include approaching intersections with stop signs, approaching intersections where a red light is either flashing or illuminated, or any time when a traffic officer orders your vehicle to stop.

55. Posters, signs, and window decals on the windshield and windows:

Are a fun way to personalize your vehicle.

Are permitted if they allow the driver at least a little visibility.

Are prohibited, unless they are otherwise specifically required by law.

Obstructions on windows are prohibited. No sign, poster, or sticker may be placed on any window of a vehicle, unless it is specifically required by law to be on a vehicle's window.

56. If you stop at a railroad crossing with more than one track:

Wait to proceed until you have a clear view of all tracks.

Stop on the first railroad track and watch for another train.

Go through as soon as the train passes.

Go through when one of the tracks is free.

If you are stopped at a railroad crossing with more than one track, do not start moving as soon as a train passes. Wait until you have a clear view down all tracks before you start across. Even where there is only one track, do not start across immediately after a train passes; check again for another train that may be approaching.

57. When turning left, drivers must yield the right-of-way to:

Other drivers who are already in the intersection.

Oncoming traffic.

Pedestrians who are already in the intersection.

Turn your wheels to the right.

After about three seconds.

When you can no longer see the vehicle over your right shoulder.

Must drive slowly to allow approaching vehicles and pedestrians time to get out of your way.

Must honk your horn so approaching vehicles and pedestrians know to give you room.

Must stop and proceed only when there are no pedestrians or vehicles approaching.
