Can I continue driving if I have crossed the stop line when the red light turns on?
1 Answers
Vehicles that have already crossed the stop line when the red light turns on can continue to proceed, because the red light is preceded by a yellow light, and vehicles that have passed the stop line during the yellow light flashing can continue to move forward. If the red light turns on and the vehicle has not crossed the stop line, it is prohibited to proceed. Relevant details are as follows: The stop line is a solid white line across the front of a road intersection (primarily at traffic light intersections), indicating the position where vehicles should wait for the signal to proceed, and they must not exceed or press down on the stop line. Additionally, on some roads with intersections, you may see double solid white lines accompanied by a 'Stop' sign. These double solid white lines also serve as stop lines, meaning vehicles must come to a complete stop at this intersection, allowing priority for vehicles on the main road. When the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of through vehicles or pedestrians. When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from proceeding. At intersections without dedicated non-motorized vehicle or pedestrian traffic signals, non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians should follow the indications of the motor vehicle traffic signals. When the red light is on, right-turning vehicles may proceed provided they do not obstruct the passage of through vehicles or pedestrians.
