Regulatory, Lane & Parking SignsStandalone practice
This sign is posted beside the signal for your left-turn lane. The signal shows a steady green circle, and an oncoming car is approaching the intersection. What must you do?

Correct answer: Let the oncoming car pass, then turn when there is a safe gap
Why
This sign is used where left-turning drivers share the green light with oncoming traffic. Look for oncoming vehicles, including motorcycles and bicycles, which are harder to see. Keep your front wheels straight while you wait, and turn only when the gap is large enough.
