Question 608 in the bank

What is signified when a traffic light displays red and yellow lights simultaneously?

A vertical traffic light with three circles: the top lit red, the middle lit yellow, the bottom unlit white. Meaning: Prepare to drive when the green light appears.
  1. Cross the intersection quickly.
  2. Correct answer: Prepare to drive when the green light appears.
  3. When turning right give right-of-way to pedestrians.
  4. The traffic light will shortly display red light only.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Prepare to drive when the green light appears.

In Israel, red and yellow shown together come just before green. It is a signal to get ready: prepare to move off, but do not start driving until the green light actually appears. It is yellow on its own, not red with yellow, that comes before red.
