California Driver License (DMV) Written Practice Test

Come to a complete stop, look both ways, and cross the intersection when there are no cars present Come to a complete stop and yield the right of way to vehicles from all directions Accelerate quickly and cross the intersection Turn on your hazard lights and cross the intersection at any speed

Correct Answer:

Come to a complete stop and yield the right of way to vehicles from all directions

Explanation:

When approaching an intersection where the traffic lights are not working, motorists should always come to a complete stop and yield the right of way to vehicles from all directions. This is the safest and most responsible course of action because it allows all vehicles to safely navigate the intersection and prevents any potential accidents. Option A may also seem like a correct answer, but it is not always possible to guarantee that there are no cars present from all directions. Option C and D are incorrect as they both suggest reckless and unsafe behavior, which is never recommended when driving.
