Ontario Bus Driver Knowledge Practice Test

If you are turning left, you must yield right-of-way to...?

1. Only pedestrians

2. Only vehicles

3. Vehicles and pedestrians

4. No one if the intersection is clear

The correct answer is: Vehicles and pedestrians

When turning left, it is important to always yield right-of-way to both vehicles and pedestrians. This is because both are potentially sharing the same space as you are turning. Option A, only yielding to pedestrians, is incorrect because you still need to watch for other vehicles and make sure the intersection is clear before turning. Option B, only yielding to vehicles, is also incorrect because pedestrians have the right-of-way at intersections and it is important to watch for and yield to them as well. Option D, not yielding to anyone if the intersection is clear, goes against the basic principles of safe driving and is therefore incorrect. Therefore, the correct answer is C, yielding to both vehicles and pedestrians when turning left.
