Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! Since you don't know what a green arrow is or what right of way means, remind me never to walk the streets you drive on.
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! lol these are just the terms I need to know. I just wrote down what my teacher had on the board on my paper and I just copied that onto here. I know some of these lol.
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! <span style="font-family:Arial">Provisional Permit- I'm pretty sure that it is a license with restrictions. Like for example, you can't drive between 11 PM-5 AM or something similar. You might need to have somebody over the age of 21 in the car with you at all times as well. I'm not sure, it's different in every state.basic speed law- This law means you may never drive faster than is safe for current conditions. For example, if you are driving 45 mph in a 55 mph speed zone during a dense fog, you could be cited for driving 'too fast for conditions.' You may never legally drive faster than the posted speed limit, even if you think it is safe to do so. That's California's, I looked it up.right-of-way- I think this means you have the right to drive on somebody else's property with permission.green arrow- You can turn the way the green arrow is pointing.blind intersection- The speed limit is usually 10-15 mph. This means that their are no stop signs at any corner.flashing yellow light- In PA, they only have flashing yellow lights late at nights. You have to drive slowly, and look both ways while going through it. Nobody is forced to come to a complete stop.flashing red light- It works the same way as a stop sign, you have to come to a complete stop before going.I think I'm pretty accurate, I could be wrong.</span>
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! The Green Arrow is a "Protected Left/Right Turn", meaning if there is a green arrow pointing left (as apposed to a full green circle), you can take the left turn knowing that the oncoming traffic you will be crossing is forced to stop, but if it's a full green circle, you are to take caution, because they have a green light and do not have to stop.Flashing Yellow Light - If you have one of these, then the intersection you are crossing, the traffic opposing your direction will have a flashing red light. You are to take caution, making sure that there are no other cars going through your intersection.Red Circle with a line through it - Means that whatever is in the circle is not allowed in that area.
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! Alright I'll be more specific since some of these I already knew. I just wrote down all the words that I'll need to know for the test. These are the words I already know...roundaboutclass c licenseclass m1, m2 licenseright of wayblind intersectionall of the terms related to traffic lights or signals<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>right-of-way- I think this means you have the right to drive on somebody else's property with permission.</div>wtf? I know that's wrong.
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! I've had a liscence for 5 years now and a squeaky clean driving record, I still don't know half of these. lol. just go to some driving website that the gov't puts out for most of these.
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! provisional permit - you most likely have one now. it's the permit you get before you get a licensebasic speed law - <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>22350. No person shall drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent having due regard for weather, visibility, the traffic on, and the surface and width of, the highway, and in no event at a speed which endangers the safety of persons or property.Amended Ch. 252, Stats. 1963. Effective September 20, 1963.</div>interim license - this is apparently something that we don't have, but y'all do. They have a period where you have to wait for your license to be sent to you in the mail, I guess. So they give you a cheapo 60-day license during that period. Here in Texas, they give you a real license on the spot.red circle with a red line through it - means you can't drive through whatever area has the sign in front of itI thought I'd add a little something in about the roundabout, even though you said you know it. If you don't really know it correctly, it's basically a circle that any given number of streets can feed into. It's basically just a way of controlling traffic. It's fairly uncommon, but we have one here on campus. The thing that I wanted to highlight is that the people inside the circle have the right of way. I thought that might be helpful to you.

There's probably more than one definition for the term.Right of Way: I'm not good at explaining things, but it's like if you are on the intersection, if someone else has the right of way you let them pass before you do. Usually people turning right have the right of way over left turners. I can't find a diagram or anything, but if you are in driver's ed you probably got a packet to do or a booklet with info that should have an intersection with arrows showing who has the right of way.
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! Priority (right of way) Vehicles will often come into conflict with other vehicles because their intended courses of travel intersect, and thus interfere with each other's routes. The general principle that establishes who has the right to go first is called "right of way", or "priority". It establishes who has the right to use the conflicting part of the road and who has to wait until the other driver does sWNED
Re: GUESS WHAT!?!?!?! <span style="font-family:Arial">I understand the meanings are different in this situation, I never said it wasn't. I was still right though.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>What is a ?right of way??A right of way is a form of an easement granted by the property owner that gives the right to travel over your land and to have the reasonable use and enjoyment of your property to others as long as it is not inconsistent with your use and enjoyment of the land. These principles had their origin in traditional common law which governed, for example, the free flow of water or allowed neighboring landowners to travel over another?s property (an informal "road system"). Although ownership rights of property are lessened by an easement, society at large benefits due to the additional freedom of movement.</div> </span>
