What does a flashing yellow X over a reversible lane allow?
- Use of the lane for a left turn
- Travel in the lane only to pass a slower vehicle
- Travel in the lane in either direction without checking traffic
- Stopping in the lane until a green arrow appears
Answer: Use of the lane for a left turn. A flashing yellow X, like two-way left-turn arrows, identifies a lane that may be used for a left turn. Traffic from the opposite direction may also be turning into that shared space, so the driver must use care. The passing choice invents a permission the signal does not provide. A reversible lane is not automatically open in both directions, and stopping for a green arrow confuses this indication with a different lane signal. The practical cue is to treat the lane as a shared left-turn area and watch for opposing traffic.
