TRAFFIC LIGHT SIGNALS
A solid green light at an intersection means you may go straight
ahead or turn right. If you want to make a left turn, you can proceed only after yielding right-of-way to pedestrians and oncoming
traffic (motorists coming toward you through the intersection).
A red signal with a green arrow means you may proceed only
in the direction of the arrow, after yielding right-of-way to pedestrians and other traffic.
&
A solid amber light means that the red signal is about to appear. You must stop your vehicle if you can do so safely; otherwise proceed through the intersection with caution.
When the arrow signal goes off, you must wait for the solid green
light to appear before proceeding.
A flashing amber signal means to slow down and proceed with
caution.

A solid red light means you must stop at the intersection and
wait for the signal to turn green before proceeding. You may make
a right turn providing you come to a complete stop and yield
right-of-way to pedestrians and other traffic before proceeding
(unless a sign prohibits you from doing so).
A flashing red signal means come to a complete stop and
proceed only when it is safe.
At some intersections, signs may prohibit a RIGHT turn.
&
A green signal with a green arrow means you may proceed in
the direction of the arrow, straight ahead, or turn right unless a
sign prohibits you from making such a turn. When the arrow
signal goes off, follow the rule for a solid green light.
There may be occasions when, because of a collision or traffic congestion, a police officer may motion you to go through a red light. In
such cases always obey the directions of the police officer.
