Which direction describes the recommended action when approaching a green light during an emergency run?

• A. Maintain speed that allows for a quick stop
• B. Stop immediately
• C. Slow to a crawl
• D. Stop in the middle of the intersection

Answer: (A)

When you see a green light on an emergency run, you should keep moving with a pace that still lets you stop quickly if a hazard appears. The green signal means you can proceed, but intersections can still have unexpected dangers—pedestrians stepping out, vehicles running the signal, or a change to yellow that you must respond to. Stopping immediately wastes valuable time and can trap you in the intersection, while slowing to a crawl or stopping in the middle of the intersection creates unnecessary delay or danger. Maintaining a speed that allows a swift stop gives you the best balance between reaching your destination promptly and staying ready to react to any changing conditions.
