Signal face with a lit green arrow pointing left

What does this signal let you do?

  1. Enter the intersection and go in any direction
  2. Turn left, but only after you stop first
  3. Go straight, because the arrow shows traffic flow
  4. Enter the intersection with care, only to make the turn shown by the arrow
Show answer

Correct answer: Enter the intersection with care, only to make the turn shown by the arrow

A green arrow allows only the movement the arrow shows, or another movement that other lit signals allow. You still yield to pedestrians and vehicles in the intersection.
