Do you need to wait for the left turn signal to turn? Here's what you need to know.
When turning at an intersection without a "no turn" sign, and there is a crosswalk, you should wait for the left turn signal to turn green and cross the stop line before making a turn. If there is a dedicated turning signal for turning, you should wait for the green light to turn. If the road is divided by a solid line or there are obstacles such as fences blocking the way, and there is no dedicated turning lane, you should wait for the left turn signal to turn green before turning.
There are some cases where you don't need to wait for the left turn signal to turn:
1. If there is a sign indicating that turning is not controlled by traffic lights, you can turn directly without waiting for the green light.
2. If there is a dashed line for turning before the traffic light and it doesn't cross the stop line, you can turn directly without waiting for the green light.
3. If there is a dedicated turning lane or turning area before the stop line, you can turn without waiting for the green light. However, you should not interfere with other vehicles and pedestrians on the road.
In summary, when turning at an intersection, you should follow the traffic rules and ensure that your turning does not cause any danger to other vehicles and pedestrians.
