How do traffic lights and signals feature in the Portuguese driving theory exam?

The IMT driving theory exam includes questions on interpreting traffic lights, signals, and instructions from officers. Understanding these elements is essential for correctly answering questions about priority and road safety.

Why is it important to know about different types of traffic signals?
