(A) Green alone or “Go.”
(1) Vehicular traffic facing the signal may proceed straight through or turn right or left unless a sign or barricade at such place prohibits either such turn. Vehicular traffic, including vehicles turning right or left, shall yield the right-of-way to other vehicles and to pedestrians lawfully within the intersection or an adjacent crosswalk at the time such signal is exhibited.
(2) Pedestrians facing the signal may proceed across the roadway within any marked or unmarked crosswalk.
(B) Steady yellow alone.
(1) Vehicular traffic facing the signal is thereby warned that the red or “Stop” signal will be exhibited immediately thereafter, and such vehicular traffic shall not enter or be crossing the intersection when the red or “Stop” signal is exhibited.
(2) Pedestrians facing such signal are thereby advised that there is sufficient time to cross the roadway, and any pedestrian then starting to cross shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles.
(C) Steady red alone or “Stop.”
(1) Vehicular traffic facing the signal shall stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, if none, then before entering the intersection, and shall remain standing until green or “Go” is shown alone. However, vehicles in the right traffic lane after making a stop as above required may enter the intersection cautiously and make a right turn unless “No Turn on Red” signs are posted to prohibit right turns; but such vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to any pedestrian or other traffic in the intersection, and such turn shall not be made so as to interfere with traffic proceeding on a green signal indication on the cross street.
(2) No pedestrian facing such signal shall enter the roadway until the green or “Go” is shown alone or until authorized so to do by a pedestrian “Walk” signal.
(D) Steady red with green arrow.
(1) Vehicular traffic facing such signal may cautiously enter the intersection only to make the movement indicated by such arrow, but shall yield the right-of-way to pedestrians lawfully within a crosswalk and to other traffic lawfully using the intersection.
(2) No pedestrian facing such signal shall enter the roadway until the green or “Go” is shown alone or until authorized so to do by a pedestrian “Walk” signal.
(3) In the event an official traffic-control signal is erected and maintained at a place other than an intersection, the provisions of this section shall be applicable except as to those provisions, which by their nature can have no application. Any stop required shall be made at a sign or marking on the pavement indicating where the stop shall be made. In the absence of any such sign or marking, the stop shall be made at the signal.
