Traffic signals and signs


A red light means you must make a complete stop
before entering the crosswalk or intersection and
wait until the light turns to green before proceeding.

A yellow light warns that the light is changing from
green to red. Slow down and prepare to stop.



A green light means you may proceed if it is safe to
do so after stopping for pedestrians and yielding
to vehicles within the intersection.


A green arrow means you may proceed carefully
only in the direction the arrow is pointing after
stopping for pedestrians and yielding to vehicles
within the intersection. In this case you may go
straight ahead only.

A green arrow, in this case, means you may turn
in the direction of the arrow after stopping for
pedestrians and yielding to vehicles within the
intersection.

A yellow arrow may appear after a green arrow and
warns you to clear the intersection.



A red flashing light means you must stop completely (treat as you would a stop sign). Proceed
with caution only after yielding the right-of-way
to pedestrians and to other vehicles at the intersection.

A yellow flashing light means you must slow down
and exercise caution before proceeding through
the intersection.

Traffic signals and signs

Traffic signals are placed at intersections to control the orderly movement 
of traffic and to prevent accidents. Drivers (including bicyclists) and 
pedestrians must obey these signals except when an officer is directing 
traffic. If a traffic signal is not functioning at all at an intersection, all 
drivers must treat the intersection as if a stop sign is posted for all directions. If a traffic signal is malfunctioning and flashing, drivers must 
proceed based on the color of the flashing signal they are facing: if the 
driver is facing a yellow flashing signal, the driver may proceed with 
caution; if the driver is facing a red flashing signal, the driver must stop 
and wait until it is safe to proceed.
