The traffic lights facing you have already been “green” for some time now. What is the right course of action now?

I continue driving, ready to brake because the traffic lights could change to “amber”

I watch the traffic lights closely

I accelerate to ensure that I can still safely pass through the junction while the traffic lights are “green”

Here is Our AI Assistant's Explanation

You answered correctly. When approaching a traffic light that has been green for some time, German traffic rules say you should proceed but be especially attentive and ready to brake, since the light could soon switch to amber. Watching the light closely allows you to react appropriately if it changes. Accelerating to "make it" through the intersection is not allowed and can be dangerous, as it increases the risk of running a red light or a collision. The correct approach is to be cautious and prepared, not to rush. This helps keep intersections safe for all road users.
