Which left turn may be made against a steady circular red light when no sign prohibits it and the driver first stops and yields?
A large three-lamp traffic signal has its top circular red lamp lit. The card states that no turn-prohibition sign is posted. No street configuration or turn route is shown.
Correct answer: From a one-way street onto a one-way street.
Why
After a complete stop, a left turn against a circular red light is permitted from one one-way street onto another one-way street if no sign prohibits it and the path is clear after yielding. This exception does not permit a turn against a red arrow.
