Here is what different traffic lights indicate: 

STEADY RED:  Stop. Do not go until the light is green. If a green arrow is shown with the red light, you can go only toward the arrow and only if the intersection is clear. 

You can make a right turn at a steady red light after you come to a full stop and yield the right-of- way to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. You can make a left turn at a steady red light when you turn from a one-way road into another one-way road after you come to a full stop and yield the right-of-way to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. 

You cannot make a turn at a red light if there is a NO TURN ON RED sign posted or another sign, signal or pavement marking prevents the turn. You are not allowed to turn on a red light in New York City unless a sign that permits it is posted. 

The driver of a school bus containing students cannot turn right on any red light. 

FLASHING RED:  Means the same as a STOP sign: Stop, yield the right-of-way, and go when it is safe. 

RED ARROW:  Do not go in the di- rection of the arrow until the red arrow light is off and a green light or arrow light goes on. A right or left turn on red is not permitted at a red arrow. 

STEADY YELLOW:  Be prepared to stop. A steady yellow light means the traffic signal is about to turn red. 

FLASHING YELLOW : Drive with caution. 

YELLOW ARROW:  The protection of a green arrow will end. If you intend to turn in the direction of the arrow, be prepared to stop. 

STEADY GREEN:  Go, but yield the right-of-way to other traffic at the intersection as required by law (see Chapter 5). 

GREEN ARROW: You can go in the direction of the arrow, but you must yield the right-of-way to other traffic at the intersection as required by law (see Chapter 5).

## Lane Use Control Lights 

Special above the pavement lights are sometimes used to indicate which lanes of a highway can be used at certain times: 

STEADY RED “X”: Do not drive in this lane. 

STEADY YELLOW “X”:  Move from this lane. 

FLASHING YELLOW “X”:  This lane can only be used for a left turn. 

GREEN ARROW:  You can use this lane. 

## PAVEMENT MARKINGS

Lines and symbols on the roadway divide lanes and tell you when you can pass other vehicles or change lanes. They also tell you which lanes to use for turns and where you must stop for signs or traffic signals. The arrows on these illustrations show the direction of traffic. 

## Edge and Lane Lines 

Solid lines along the side of the road tell you where its edge is – where the travel lane ends and the shoulder begins. It is illegal to drive across the edge line, except when told to by a police officer or other authorized official or when allowed by an official sign. An edge line that angles towards the center of the road shows that the road is narrower ahead.
