ROAD JUNCTIONS
55. Approach all road junctions with caution and be in full control of your vehicle at all times. Bring your vehicle to a complete stop at all stop signs or stop lights and proceed only when it is safe to do so. At traffic lights do not enter the intersection on the red amber. If the amber light comes on while you are in intersection you may proceed cautiously.
Do not block the intersection although you may have the right Of way or green signal.
FILTER LIGHTS
56. Do not enter the filter lane unless you intend to turn in direction of the green arrow at a road junction controlled by traffic lights.
TURNING
57. Before you turn at a junction position your vehicle properly, give the proper signal and turn carefully. Look out especially for pedestrians.
BUSES
58. Give way to buses whenever it is safe to do so especially when they signal to pull out from bus stops. Look out for people leaving the bus or crossing the road.
ANIMALS
59. Watch out for animals on the road. Drive slowly past them, and be prepared to stop. Do not sound your horn.
SCHOOLS AND SCHOOL CROSSINGS
60. Drive slowly near schools and when passing a stationary school bus. You must stop when the school patrol shows a STOP
CHILDREN CROSSING sign.
THE SAFETY OF PEDESTRIANS
61. Drive safely and slowly when there are pedestrians about, especially in crowded streets or residential areas. Watch for pedestrians emerging suddenly into the road, especially from behind parked vehicles.
APPROACHING PEDESTRIAN CROSSING
62. Look out for people waiting to cross especially children, the elderly and the disabled. Allow extra time to slow down or stop on wet roads. Do not wave people across; this could be dangerous if another vehicle is coming. Do not overtake at the crossing.
