You are in a right-turn lane. The signal for your lane shows a steady red arrow that points right. No other sign is posted, and no traffic or people are near. What must you do?
A approaches in an eastbound right-turn lane. The lane has a white right-turn arrow and white stop line. A large detail identifies A's steady red right-arrow signal. The street is clear and no other signs are posted.
Correct answer: Stop and stay stopped until the arrow changes
Why
A red arrow controls only the movement that it points to, and for that movement no turn is allowed. The rules for red arrows are different from state to state; in Virginia, you may turn on a red arrow only where a posted sign allows a turn after a stop. A flashing red arrow is different: you stop, yield, and then may turn when it is safe.
