Question

open intersections are
intersections not protected by a police officer.
intersections not controlled by a flashing red
light.
intersections not protected by stop signs, yield
signs, or traffic lights.
intersections where the speed limit is not
posted.

Explanation:

To determine the correct definition of open intersections, we analyze each option:

• The first option is incorrect because open intersections are not defined by the presence or absence of a police officer.
• The second option is incorrect as a flashing red light is a form of traffic control, but open intersections are about the absence of stop signs, yield signs, or traffic lights (not just flashing red lights).
• The third option is correct. Open intersections are those that do not have stop signs, yield signs, or traffic lights to control the flow of traffic.
• The fourth option is incorrect because the speed limit posting is not related to the definition of an open intersection.

Answer:

C. intersections not protected by stop signs, yield signs, or traffic lights.
