If your lane control signal is indicated by a green arrow, what does that mean for your lane?

When a lane control signal displays a green arrow, it indicates that the lane is open for use. This means that you are permitted to proceed in that lane and there are no restrictions in place. The green arrow serves as a clear signal to drivers that they can safely enter or remain in that lane, whether they are making a turn or continuing straight.

In contrast, other signals like a red arrow would show that the lane is closed, requiring you to divert or stop. The green arrow clearly communicates an opportunity to proceed, aligning with traffic rules that promote safety and efficiency on the road. Hence, recognizing and correctly interpreting these signals is crucial for all drivers to ensure smooth traffic flow and compliance with road regulations.
