Theory Mastery

You approach a junction with traffic lights. A military convoy is driving along the crossing road, and a little further on a funeral procession follows. What is correct in this situation? (multiple answers possible)

  1. ✓ You recognise the convoy by a blue flag at the front and a green one at the back
  2. ✓ Until the first vehicle has passed, the normal priority rules apply
  3. At a traffic light the convoy and the procession behave exactly the same
  4. ✓ If you are on a priority road or merging, you may cut through
  5. A convoy or procession must let pedestrians on a zebra crossing go first

Correct answer: You recognise the convoy by a blue flag at the front and a green one at the back; Until the first vehicle has passed, the normal priority rules apply; If you are on a priority road or merging, you may cut through

Explanation

False — you treat convoy and procession as the same. A military convoy may carry on at green, even if it is then still in the middle of the junction; a funeral procession must stop at red
