Do you need to wait for the red light in the left-turn lane?

[JosieLynn]

You need to wait for the red light when turning left. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from passing, and you cannot make a U-turn or left turn directly. Regulatory basis: The "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" has corresponding provisions: Article 38 states that motor vehicle signal lights and non-motor vehicle signal lights indicate: When the green light is on, vehicles are allowed to pass, but turning vehicles must not hinder the passage of released straight-going vehicles and pedestrians. When the yellow light is on: Vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to pass. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from passing. At intersections without non-motor vehicle signal lights or pedestrian crossing signal lights, non-motor vehicles and pedestrians shall follow the instructions of the motor vehicle signal lights.
