Right-Turn Arrow

Lane is reserved for right turns only; drivers in this lane must turn right at the intersection.

A right-turn arrow painted in the lane tells you that this lane is for right turns only. Drivers who choose this lane must turn right at the next intersection and may not go straight. The arrow is usually repeated several car lengths ahead of the stop bar so drivers can move out of the lane if they did not intend to turn.
