Hawaii Drivers Permit Practice Test

What does a circular green traffic light indicate?

That you always have the right of way. That you may go straight ahead or turn, except where signs prohibit turns. Traffic and pedestrians already in the intersection must get out of your way. Both 2 and 3 above.

Correct Answer:

That you may go straight ahead or turn, except where signs prohibit turns.

Explanation:

A circular green traffic light signifies that vehicles may proceed in the direction indicated by the light. This means that drivers can go straight ahead or make a turn, unless there are specific signs that prohibit such movements. The presence of a green light indicates that it is safe for drivers to enter the intersection, provided they yield to any pedestrians and other vehicles already present. While it is also true that traffic and pedestrians in the intersection should clear the way for vehicles with the right of way, this does not mean they are obligated to do so when the light turns green. Therefore, the emphasis is on the permission to continue driving or turning as per the indicated rules, which is clearly highlighted in the correct choice.
