DAY 24: Stage 2 Practical Lesson 2.02, 2.03 Pedestrian Crossing, Left Turn and Slip Road at Junction

Learn about left turn at junction. Spend all the time driving around Bukit Batok area. I met with daring pedestrians that even tried to stop my car to cross the road. Whenever there is a stop sign at junction, I need to stop even if there is no incoming traffic on the main road. The stop line (solid white line) is also an indication that you need to stop. If it is dashed white line, it means you need to give way to vehicles on the main road. If no vehicle, then you can proceed without the car coming to a full stop. When you are reaching traffic lights, make sure not to speed up. Instead maintain speed, with right foot covering foot brake in case the light turns amber suddenly and you need to brake. However, if you have already reached the last arrow before the junction when the light turns amber, you are allowed to proceed as stopping at such a last minute is dangerous and the car would likely end up in the junction.

Things to take note:

  • Stop sign or solid white line means need to stop the car completely.
  • Give way sign or dashed line means can proceed if no vehicle along the main road
  • Cover foot brake when nearing green traffic light
  • Once reach the last arrow before the traffic light, can accelerate and proceed on amber
