When Can You Enter the Left-Turn Waiting Area?

[ReidDella]

You can enter the left-turn waiting area when the straight-through signal light changes from red to green. Here is a detailed introduction to the left-turn waiting area: Entry Conditions: Traffic regulations do not explicitly specify entering the left-turn waiting area during a red light. You can only enter the left-turn waiting area when either the left-turn signal light, the straight-through signal light, or both are green. Otherwise, it is considered running a red light, which results in a 6-point deduction and a fine. Purpose: The left-turn waiting area is set up at large intersections to maximize the use of road resources, increase the storage capacity of left-turn lanes, and reduce traffic pressure. Of course, these areas are also equipped with traffic violation cameras. If you continue to enter the left-turn waiting area when the signal suddenly turns red, it will be considered running a red light.
