Fortunately you can't be cited for violating a private company's example test question! :-) If you block an intersection because there isn't room on the far side, you'd be cited under section 22526 of Chapter 9, Stopping, Standing, and Parking: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?lawCode=VEH&sectionNum=22526 http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.... - - - 22526 (a): Notwithstanding any official traffic control signal indication to proceed, a driver of a vehicle shall not enter an intersection or marked crosswalk unless there is sufficient space on the other side of the intersection or marked crosswalk to accommodate the vehicle driven without obstructing the through passage of vehicles from either side. - - - This section is known as the Anti-Gridlock Act of 1987. The reason this had to be enacted was that it was never illegal to be in an intersection when the light turned red. If that were illegal, then officers would already have a section number to cite you under. They didn't, so this law gave them one. Besides that, the only other relevant sections I could find are the ones I quoted in my previous comment.
