Are you allowed to turn right in this situation if you do not cause impediments to traffic?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
On the traffic lights on the right-hand side, a green arrow pointing up is lit. These are directional traffic lights, which apply only to going straight on. A right turn is not covered by this signal, so you must not make it - even if it seems that you will not get in anyone's way.
The signals of directional traffic lights S-3 apply only to drivers going in the direction shown by the arrow. A green arrow pointing straight ahead is not permission to drive "anywhere, as long as you are careful" - it is not the same situation as a green filter arrow next to a red light, where after stopping you may turn conditionally. If you want to turn right, you wait for the signal intended for that direction.
