If you have a green light when turning left, you:

Have the right of way and do not need to yield
Must yield to all oncoming traffic
Should come to a full stop prior to turning
Should not turn as it is illegal

The correct answer is: Must yield to all oncoming traffic

When turning left on a green light, you do not have the right of way. This means that you must yield to all oncoming traffic, regardless of who has a green light in the other direction. Option A is incorrect because having a green light only means that you have permission to go, not the right of way. Option C is incorrect because it only applies to making a right turn on a red light. Option D is incorrect because as long as you yield to oncoming traffic, it is legal to turn on a green light.
