What must a driver do before entering an intersection?

  1. Enter if the light is green

  2. Only enter if they can proceed without stopping

  3. Wait until the intersection is completely clear

  4. Follow the vehicle in front of them closely

The correct answer is: Only enter if they can proceed without stopping

Before entering an intersection, a driver is required to ensure they can proceed without stopping. This means that the driver should assess the situation ahead and determine that there is a clear path through the intersection, allowing for safe passage without needing to halt the vehicle unexpectedly. This practice helps to maintain the flow of traffic and reduces the risk of collisions with other vehicles or pedestrians. If a driver cannot continue without stopping, it may lead to a dangerous situation where they could become an obstruction or interfere with the right-of-way of other road users. Therefore, ensuring the path is clear before proceeding is crucial for safe and responsible driving at intersections.
