Question 518 in the bank

When you approach an intersection and the a traffic light starts flashing green.

A traffic light with three circles: the top two are empty, and the bottom one is green with short spikes around it. Meaning: It is a sign that the green light is about to change in three seconds.
  1. It is a sign that the traffic light is out of order and you should follow the instructions of the road signs that are placed there.
  2. There is no difference between flickering-green and green light; hence, there is no need to pay special attention to it.
  3. Correct answer: It is a sign that the green light is about to change in three seconds.
  4. It is a sign that the light turned green a short time ago and you can continue driving.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: It is a sign that the green light is about to change in three seconds.

A flashing green light warns that the green phase is about to change in three seconds, after which the light turns yellow. Prepare to stop and do not speed up to beat the light. If you can stop safely before the intersection, do so. It is not a sign of a broken traffic light, and it is not the same as a steady green.
