You see this flashing yellow "X" signal above your lane. What does it mean?

  1. This lane is closed

  2. This lane is only for buses

  3. This lane is only for making turns

  4. This lane is for emergency vehicles only

The correct answer is: This lane is only for making turns

When you see a flashing yellow "X" signal above your lane while driving, it indicates that the lane is only for making turns. This signal is commonly used to designate a reversible lane, where the direction of travel in that lane can change depending on the traffic flow. By allowing only turns from this lane, it helps to facilitate the movement of vehicles during certain times of the day when traffic patterns may differ. Remember to always pay attention to lane signals and signs to ensure safe and efficient driving.
