Explanation
When a traffic light displays both a red light and a green arrow, it indicates that drivers are permitted to turn in the direction of the arrow despite the red light. This configuration typically occurs when there is a dedicated turn lane and the intersection is clear for turning traffic. Drivers must yield to any pedestrians and vehicles already lawfully in the intersection or crosswalk before proceeding in the direction indicated by the green arrow.
