Share the road with trams

Reason from the conditions, not from a memorised answer. Read the scene, choose, then open the explanation. The drawing is illustrative; the written conditions control the question.

Original teaching diagram linked to the source rule

Rail vehicles follow fixed tracks and cannot swerve around you. At an unregulated conflict, road users give way to rail vehicles; do not assume ordinary priority-to-the-right resolves it.

Qualified officers and applicable traffic signals still matter. Identify the signal intended for your movement; special public-transport signals are not ordinary permission for your car.

Never queue on tracks when the exit is blocked. Look for passengers and pedestrians near stops, follow local lane restrictions and leave enough room for the tram to pass.
