2 Traffic Lights Green Light- GO – You can proceed only if the intersection is clear. When approaching a green light, check traffic to the left, right, and front. Yellow- Slow down or stop – Make every effort to stop safely. – If you are too close to safely stop then proceed with caution Red-STOP – You must come to a full stop – Stop behind the stop line, crosswalk or before entering the intersection

3 Right turn on Red NJ Allows you to make a right turn on red, unless there is a sign indicating otherwise This means making a right turn on red in a safe manner that will not impede on the flow of traffic. Before you make a right-turn-on red, make sure no pedestrians are in the crosswalk An improper turn at a traffic light is a 3 point ticket
