Practice Test 14
When may you stop and wait in a box junction?
You’re driving behind a cyclist. The road has potholes and cracks. Further ahead, there’s a roundabout. A horse rider is approaching it in the left-hand lane. In a built-up area with street lights, you see a school sign with a flashing amber signal. There are no speed-limit signs. Later, you stop at a pedestrian crossing where the lights are red. The person crossing carries a red-banded white stick and has a guide dog wearing a red-and-white checked harness.
How can you reduce the risk of your vehicle being broken into at night?

Sleet is falling steadily and it’s cold. Ahead, a vehicle is spreading salt on the road. In town there are high-occupancy vehicle lanes, which you don’t use. Your home is level with a zebra crossing but you park beyond its markings, further down the road.
