What does a lighted green arrow over a traffic lane mean?

  1. That you may use that lane.

  2. That you may not use that lane.

  3. That the lane is for traffic coming toward you.

  4. Both 2 and 3 above.

The correct answer is: That you may use that lane.

A lighted green arrow over a traffic lane indicates that you may use that lane. This signal specifically means that all traffic in that lane has the right of way to proceed in the direction indicated by the arrow. Drivers can move into the lane safely, which may be turning left, right, or going straight, depending on the direction of the arrow. In situations where signals such as red or yellow arrows are present, they would communicate restrictions on lane usage. However, a green arrow unambiguously permits access, ensuring that drivers understand they can proceed without concern for oncoming traffic in that particular lane.
