1 Answers
You cannot turn left when the straight lane has a red light and the left turn lane has a green light. According to the relevant provisions of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123 "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses": 1. Turning left from a straight lane is considered a traffic violation. 2. Turning left from a straight lane is classified as driving against regulations and results in a 2-point penalty. Precautions for turning a car are as follows: 1. Rule: It is a commonly followed rule that left turns and going straight are allowed when the light is green. 2. Three traffic lights: At intersections in all four directions, each direction has three traffic lights indicating left, straight, and right turns, with each light changing in the order of red, green, and yellow. Vehicles from one direction traveling to the other three directions must follow the rule of stopping at red lights, going at green lights, proceeding if already crossing at yellow lights, and stopping if not yet crossing at yellow lights. 3. One traffic light: Originally, each direction had only one traffic light, following the principle that left turns and straight driving must stop at red lights, right turns can proceed, and all three directions can proceed at green lights.
