Seems OK to me, unless that green light isn't the equivalent of a green left arrow here.

There actually is something similar to that a few miles from me. They widened an intersection to add a left turn lane for oncoming traffic and installed new hanging traffic lights. They also left the old light attached to a pole on the corner, but didn't reprogram it to be aware of the left turn signal. So you'll have the light hanging from a wire showing red, and people coming from the opposite direction making left turns in front of you, but the old, half hidden behind a tree light is showing green. There're roughly 35k people in the greater Johnstown PA metro area.

This reminds me of a George Carlin joke, that went something like this: I was riding in my friends car the other day, when we were approaching a red light, and my friend punches it and drives right through the red light. I ask "What the hell are you doing?!?!", he says "Don't worry, my brother does it all the time". We approach another red light, and again, he punches it and drives right through it. This time I yell "What the HELL are you doing?!?! You're going to get us both killed!!!!", to which he replies "Don't worry, my brother does this all the time!" When suddenly we come to a green light and he slams on his brakes, stopping the car at the light. "NOW WHAT!?!", I yell, "This light's green, you can actually GO through this light!!!!", to that he says "But my brother might be coming the other way!" :doh:

He and I must share the same brother, somehow. ;P Ironically, my brother has never hit something that moves, though he does run red lights. He has hit trees, street lights, fences, bridges, off-ramps, etc. and even one parked car, but he has never hit a moving vehicle.

Are you implying that crossing bridges are not safe in Mexico City (Sarcasm):laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

This reminds me a little story. We were in this project and the leader was a German fellow, Volker Lenkeit, brought directly from Europe. After a hard day's work, we went out to dinner (Volker, the project leader and I). We were crossing the streets and --of course-- the cars kept moving and no one would let us cross. So Volker, desperated, just stepped in the avenue and yelled to the car: "Stop!". The stunned driver almost hit this guy. Then we explained to him that... well... sometimes people are not nice enough to stop and let fellows cross a street.

Nope, it isn't. For a left arrow the traffic light is a... well, a left arrow.
