Explanation
A green traffic signal light means GO, but only if the way is clear. You must stop for any vehicle, bicyclist, or pedestrian already in the intersection. Always yield to those who entered the intersection first, even if you have the green light. Approach intersections cautiously, and consider slowing down in case the light changes to yellow as you near.
