5 Main Types of Crossroads
UNCONTROLLED CROSSINGS
No one has priority and you need to identify this crossroad BEFORE you get to it
Controlled By Road Markings
Stop signs or markings and Give Way signs or markings
Controlled By Traffic Lights
With traffic lights is there one set or two? Is it a general green light for everyone or a filter arrow?
Yellow Box Junctions
It DOES NOT matter if the traffic light is green the main thing is - Can you exit the box junction?
Road Markings and Traffic Lights

Crossroads with traffic lights/Filter Lights
With traffic light controlled crossroads you need to look and assess is it a general green light or is it a filter light?
If you are turning right - Do you need to drive into the middle and wait or if it is a filter arrow can you simply drive across?
Crossroads with Yellow Box Junctions
With Yellow box junction crossroads it DOES NOT matter whether the traffic light is on green or not!
The most important thing is - Can you clear the yellow box junction.
If the answer is no, then whether the traffic light is on green or not - you need to stop at the stop line
The only exception to thiis is when turning right and you are stopped from going across because of oncoming traffic.
If there is traffic to your right blocking your exit - You need to wait at the traffic lights until the exit road is clear
