Intersection questions dominate Road Rules revision because almost every trip crosses one. The theory exam expects you to combine traffic control (lights, signs, road markings) with priority rules when no signal tells you exactly what to do—then practise with Review Questions and cheat sheet (road rules).
Controlled intersections
Where traffic lights or authorised directions apply, follow the phase shown and any supplementary plates. Flashing signals have specific meanings; steady red means stop before the stop line where one is provided. When lights fail or an officer directs traffic, follow the officer. See also traffic signals in the Traffic Signs book.
Stop and yield
A stop sign means stop—complete cessation—before entering the intersection unless law or a traffic officer indicates otherwise. A yield sign means give way: be prepared to stop for traffic you must yield to, without assuming others will yield to you.
Uncontrolled intersections
When no sign or signal assigns priority, general priority rules apply (yielding to traffic from the right at an uncontrolled crossing is the classic learner exam theme). Read each question carefully for context: vehicle types, visibility, and who arrived first can change the scenario.
Roundabouts
At roundabouts, yield to vehicles already circulating in the roundabout and enter when safe. Signal and lane choice should match your exit—practical chapters on intersections and roundabouts in the learner and licence driver guides expand on observation and positioning.
Closing tip
Bundle intersection revision with the Intersections sections in the Road Rules book and practical books, then reinforce with category-filtered Review Questions. That connects book narrative to exam-style phrasing.
