Explanation
If you reach an intersection with a traffic signal showing a green light, it means you may enter the intersection and proceed along your route. Always be careful and proceed only after checking that there aren't any bicycles, pedestrians, or vehicles in your way. Enter the intersection only if you are sure you can exit it before the light turns red.
