The editor will explain the classification and use of traffic lights:
green light signal
The green light signal is a signal to allow passage. According to the “Enforcement Regulations of the Traffic Safety Law”: When the green light is on, pedestrians are allowed to pass, but turning vehicles are not allowed to obstruct the passing of straight vehicles and pedestrians that are released.
red light signal
The red light signal is an absolute prohibition signal. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited. A right-turning vehicle may pass if it does not hinder the passage of vehicles and pedestrians being released.
The red light signal is a prohibition signal with compulsory meaning. When this signal is encountered, the prohibited vehicle must stop outside the stop line, and the prohibited pedestrian must wait for the release on the sidewalk; when the motor vehicle is waiting for release, it is not allowed to turn off , Do not open the door, and drivers of all kinds of vehicles are not allowed to leave the vehicle; bicycles are not allowed to turn left and carts are not allowed to go around outside the intersection, and right turn methods are not allowed to go around.
yellow light signal
When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have crossed the stop line can continue to pass.
The meaning of the yellow light signal lies between the green light signal and the red light signal. When the yellow light is on, it warns drivers and pedestrians that the traffic time is over, and the light is about to change to red. The car should be parked behind the stop line and pedestrians should not enter the crosswalk. However, if the vehicle crosses the stop line because it is too close to stop, it can continue to pass. Pedestrians who are already in the crosswalk should pass the traffic lights as soon as possible, or stay on the spot, or return to the original place, depending on the situation of the incoming traffic.
flashing warning lights
is a continuously flashing yellow light, reminding vehicles and pedestrians to watch out when passing, and pass after confirming safety. This kind of light does not have the function of controlling traffic advance and yield. Some hang over the intersection, and some use only the yellow light to flash when the traffic indicator stops use at night to remind vehicles and pedestrians that the intersection is ahead. Drive cautiously, wait and see carefully, and pass safely. At intersections where flashing warning lights are flashing, when vehicles and pedestrians pass through, the principles of ensuring safety must be observed, and at the same time, the traffic regulations for intersections without traffic signals or traffic signs should be observed.
Direction indicator light
The direction signal light is a special indicator light that directs the direction of the motor vehicle. It is pointed by different arrows to indicate that the motor vehicle is going straight to turn left or right. It consists of a red, yellow, and green arrow pattern.
Lane light signal
Lane lights are composed of green arrow lights and red cross lights. They are located on variable lanes and only work on the lane. When the green arrow light is on, vehicles in the lane are allowed to pass in the indicated direction; when the red cross-shaped light or arrow light is on, vehicles in the lane are prohibited from passing.
Crosswalk light signal
Crosswalk lights are composed of red and green lights. There is an image of a standing person on the red light mirror and a walking person on the green light. Crosswalk lights are installed at both ends of crosswalks at important intersections with a lot of people. The lamp head faces the carriageway and is perpendicular to the center of the road.
The crosswalk light signal has two types of signals: green and red. The meaning is similar to that of the intersection signal. That is, when the green light is on, the traffic indicator allows pedestrians to pass through the crosswalk; when the red light is on, pedestrians are prohibited from entering the crosswalk, but have already entered the crosswalk Yes, you can continue to pass or stay and wait at the center line of the road.
