    If you are unsure, maybe just wait a few seconds for the green light?

    You do know there is a difference between a red arrow traffic light (where you have to wait until the arrow is green) and a red traffic light (non arrow) ? right ? Your driving lesson for the day......

    That’s how I was taught too. As long as you enter the intersection before the red, you can wait until the oncoming traffic stops.

    If there is no sign prohibiting it, that means it's good to go. I use that when driving on any road. There is one road near my terminal that my GPS always tries to avoid. I don't see any no truck or weight limit signs on it and if they didn't want me on it they would tell me, right?

    I do find it odd that I have never seen any other trucks on it, but figured all the other truck drivers are blindly following their GPS and staying off it. :D
