You are in a left-turn lane. The signal over your lane shows a steady red arrow pointing left. The lanes beside you have a green light, and no oncoming traffic is in sight. What should you do?
A is in a marked left-turn lane. Its signal shows a steady red left arrow while the through-lane signal is green, and no oncoming car is shown.
Correct answer: Stay stopped until a green arrow or another signal allows the left turn.
Why
Many intersections give left turns their own signal, so the lanes beside you can have green while your turn lane has a red arrow. The red arrow protects oncoming traffic and pedestrians who have the right-of-way at that time. Watch the signal over your own lane, and wait for a green arrow, a flashing yellow arrow or a green light that permits your turn.
