False.

Explanation
When the traffic signal light turns green, before proceeding you must first yield the right of way to any pedestrians and vehicles in the intersection or crosswalk. You must also check both left and right for cross traffic before entering the intersection to avoid a collision with a red light runner. Additionally, you must yield to any vehicle that is already in the intersection when the light changed.
