You must know what the sequence of the lights are, understand filter lights and who has priority, and show the examiner you have good awareness.
You must have good vision and planning at traffic lights, as people do not alway observe the rules and stop at red lights.
When you are turning right, you will need to carry out a lifesaver before you start the turn.
You must know what the rules are regarding cyclists and where you must stop if they are present.
Cyclists may arrive at any time if you are stationary and you must look out for them.
SINGLE OR DOUBLE LANE
You could encounter traffic lights with single or double lanes on approach.
Where there are road markings you will have to adhere to specific rules for local traffic lights.
Use the lane that is designated for the direction of travel and where possible stay in the centre of your chosen lane to prevent other road users squeezing past in the same lane.
If they are green as you approach they may change before you arrive, anticipation is required to deal with the traffic lights safely.
You will need to be ready to slow down and gear change on approach to demonstrate that you are aware of the situation and can read the road ahead to anticipate not stopping if the lights have been on red for some time.
BOX JUNCTIONS ARE COMMON
Sometimes there will be a box junction in the middle of the traffic lights. There are also local junction variations that will be covered during training.
You should bok some professional guidance with your local training school, as they will familiarise you with local roads and possible test route junctions.
