- DYou must turn right.
Show answer & explanationAnswer & explanation
Correct answer: B. A right turn is permitted.
This sign is a permissive turn sign, indicating that a right turn is allowed. It does not mandate the turn or prohibit it, nor does it specifically address yielding to oncoming traffic beyond standard rules.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. While yielding may be necessary, this sign's primary meaning is about the permissibility of the turn, not specific yielding rules.
- C. No right turn signs typically have a red circle with a slash through the arrow.
- D. This sign permits, but does not mandate, a right turn.
Permissive Turn Sign (Green Circle)
A regulatory sign indicating that a specific turn movement is allowed or permitted, but not required.
- Typically a white rectangular sign with a green circle and an arrow.
- Indicates a turn is legal to make.
- Does not mean the turn is mandatory.
Memory trick: Green means go, a circle means it's allowed to flow.
