BDifficulty 2/5

As a general rule, what does a steady circular red light applicable to your vehicle at a junction indicate?

Correct answer

Passage prohibited; stop as required by the signal.

It prohibits passage: stop before the relevant preceding stop line or, if absent, before the signal. If it is inside or beyond the junction, do not enter the junction or pass its preceding line if present. Exercising caution does not authorise passing a red light. Follow officers’ orders and applicable specific signals.
