When Can You Enter the Left-Turn Waiting Area?
1 Answers
Conditions for entering the left-turn waiting area: 1. When both the straight and left-turn signals are red, left-turning vehicles are prohibited from entering the waiting area and should queue behind the stop line until permitted to proceed; 2. When the straight signal in the same direction turns green (while the left-turn signal remains red), left-turning vehicles should enter the waiting area in order and wait to turn left. When the left-turn signal subsequently turns green, vehicles in the waiting area should proceed left through the intersection in sequence; 3. When the left-turn signal is red (or yellow), left-turning vehicles that have not entered the waiting area should stop behind the stop line and wait, not entering the waiting area. Left-turning vehicles already in the waiting area should continue to turn left through the intersection without stopping, ensuring smooth traffic flow at the intersection.
