What is indicated by a traffic light showing a black arrow over a steady red light?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is that it prohibits driving in the direction the arrow points. It does not alter the meaning of the red light (stop), but rather limits its application exclusively to the direction indicated by the black arrow. This means vehicles intending to take that direction must stop, while those going in other directions not affected by this or other prohibition signals may proceed. It should not be confused with a flashing yellow light (caution) or a green arrow (right of way).
