Left Turn Yield on Flashing Yellow Arrow

On a flashing yellow arrow, left-turning drivers may proceed but must yield to oncoming traffic.

A flashing yellow arrow allows left turns when oncoming traffic and pedestrians are clear, but does not grant the right of way. Drivers must wait for a safe gap before completing the turn; a steady green arrow, when shown, gives a protected left turn that does not require yielding.
