You are stopped at a steady red light in Delaware and want to turn right. What may you do?
- A Turn without stopping if no cars are coming
- B Wait for the light to turn green before turning
- C Turn only if a green arrow appears beside the light
- D Turn after a full stop, yielding to pedestrians and traffic, unless a sign or red arrow prohibits it
Show answer
D. Turn after a full stop, yielding to pedestrians and traffic, unless a sign or red arrow prohibits it
Delaware allows a right turn on red after a full stop, unless a posted sign prohibits it or a steady red arrow is showing. You must still yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk and to cross traffic, and turn only when it is safe.

Your brakes suddenly stop working. What should you try first?
- A Pull the parking brake as hard as you can
- B Turn the ignition to the lock position
- C Pump the brake pedal several times
- D Shift straight into park
Show answer
C. Pump the brake pedal several times
If your brakes fail, pump the brake pedal first; that often builds enough pressure to stop. If not, apply the parking brake slowly, then shift to lower gears and look for a safe place to stop.
