If a green arrow turns into a solid green light, you:

  1. May still turn, but you must yield to oncoming traffic. ✓
  2. May no longer turn and must proceed straight.
  3. Still have the right-of-way to turn.
  4. No longer have to turn in the direction that the arrow indicated.

Answer: A. May still turn, but you must yield to oncoming traffic.

You may still turn, but you must yield to oncoming traffic.

Why this is the answer

Once the arrow ends, the protected turn is over, so a left turn is no longer shielded from opposing cars. The handbook says a green arrow lets you proceed into the intersection while oncoming traffic is stopped, and it separately says you can turn left on a green light only after yielding to all traffic approaching from the opposite direction. A steady green light also allows you to turn unless another sign or signal forbids it. So you can still make the turn, but you must give way to oncoming traffic.

Why the other answers are wrong

Remember it

Think: arrow means protected, round green means turn if clear but let oncoming traffic go first.
