At a Florida intersection, a traffic signal is completely dark and no officer is directing traffic. What should you do?
Correct answer: C – Stop and proceed using all-way-stop rules
State law requires a driver approaching an inoperative traffic light to stop as required at a stop intersection. The official handbook instructs drivers to treat the intersection as a four-way stop when law enforcement is not present. Proceed only after yielding according to stop-sign right-of-way rules.
