Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
A red X is displayed directly above a traffic lane. What does it tell you?

Correct answer: Do not drive in that lane.
Why
A red X above a lane means do not drive in that lane. Use an open, permitted lane and obey any other traffic-control signs or directions. Lane-control signals may change the direction or availability of lanes.
