Explanation
Light rail vehicles have their own set of rules and operate on tracks that might intersect with roadways. They have a significant stopping distance and cannot maneuver quickly. Turning in front of light rail vehicles can lead to dangerous situations, as they may not be able to stop in time to avoid a collision. Always wait until you have a clear and safe path, and ensure that the traffic light or signal indicates it is safe to proceed.
