, 7. STALE GREEN LIGHTS - CORRECT ANSWER: The point of decision is an
imaginary line that you set up between your vehicle and the cross-walk when you are
approaching an intersection with a stale green light. Since you are not sure of the light,
you must be sure of the point behind which you will stop if the light should start to
change. This helps you get the big picture.

the edge of your driving path to stay put until you are past the danger point, it is
imperative that you get their attention. The horn and lights are your communication tools
when you do not have eye contact. Proper use of the horn to express a friendly
message seems in many instances to be a lost art. Only when you have eye contact
can you expect the other person to act in a reasonably predictable manner to avoid a
dangerous situation.
