A right turn is protected here, and no stop is needed.

Who has the right a way the person with a green light and a green arrow pointing left or the oncoming traffic does?
Normally, the green arrow would indicate that the opposing traffic has a red light and as such the green arrow traffic has right of way.However, due to mechanical or planning errors it is possible that the opposing traffic will also have a green light. If this happens, the opposing traffic (by virtue of going straight) has right of way. If this opposing traffic does not appear to be stopping, green arrow traffic should assume that opposing traffic has a green arrow and right of way. In the event of a collision when both have green, green arrow traffic (turning left) will be found at fault except in no-fault states where this will be considered a no-fault accident.
When at an intersection when the traffic signal is showing a red light and a green arrow?
you must stop if traveling straight...you can go which ever way the green arrow is pointing, left or right.
If the arrow in front of me is green and all the cross traffic to my left and right are stopped do i have the right away?
no
Do you have to turn right on a red light if you don't want to?
A green light on a traffic light set (in the UK) means automobile traffic is free to go. Walking out when commuter traffic lights are on green is a bad idea. Answer from @MunicipalSigns: In general: A steady GREEN traffic light means you can go through the intersection. You must yield to emergency vehicles and others as required by law. If you are stopped and then the light turns green, you must allow crossing traffic to clear the intersection before you go ahead. A GREEN arrow means you can safely turn in the direction of the arrow. There should be no on-coming or crossing traffic while the arrow is green. If you are turning left, a steady green traffic green light means you may turn but only when safe to do so. Oncoming traffic has the right-of-way. Be alert for signs that prohibit left turns. When turning right or left, watch for pedestrians crossing in front of your vehicle.
Where is the green light on a traffic light?
The green light on the traffic light is on the bottom. The yellow is in middle, the red is on top. However, in some municipalities, the traffic lights are not vertical, they are horizontal. In these instances, the green light is usually, but not always, the furthest to the right.
What does the green arrow with red light mean?
A green arrow showing same time as a red light proceed carefully in the direction of the arrow after yielding the right-of-way to other vehicles and perdestrians
What does a green arrow with a red light mean?
If you are in the lane governed by the arrow proceed carefully in the direction of the arrow after yielding the right-of-way to other vehicles and pedestrians. If you do not intend to go in the direction of the arrow and you are not in that lane, you have to wait for a green arrow, or a full green light.If you are in the 'green arrow' lane by mistake, you should move anyway, or you may annoy many people.Means that you may proceed in the direction of the arrow, if you are in the proper lane and the roadway is clear.It means that you may make a move IN THE DIRECTION THE ARROW POINTS ONLY.It means that vehicles wishing to move in the direction the arrow points can go. Ayy other maneuver is prohibitted.you can turn wichever way the green arrow is pointing but you have to be in the proper lane for such a turn and you must yield the right-of-way to vehicles and pedestrians within the intersectionIf going straight, it means you must stop until the light turns green. You are permitted to turn in whatever direction the green arrow is pointing.A green arrow with a red traffic light means you have a protected turn with oncoming traffic stopped at a red light. Then when the green arrow turns yellow and then you have a green light, you have to yield to opposing traffic, but you may still make your turn when the opposing traffic has cleared.
On a traffic light which position is the green light?
On a vertical display traffic signal the green light is on the bottom. On a horizontal display traffic signal it is to the right, but may depend on that state (or municipality's) practice.
On a traffic light what position is the green light?
The lowest light on a traffic signal is green. Some cities use traffic lights that are not arranges top to bottom but rather side to side. In this event the green light is usually the furthest to the right.
What does a green arrow at the same time as a red traffic light mean?
The road leading up to these traffic lights will be split into filter lanes: traffic in one lane goes left, another lane is for traffic wanting to travel straight ahead, and another lane may be for vehicles wishing to go right. Let's say the green arrow points left. It means only traffic that wants to turn left can go. Vehicles in all other lanes must remain stopped. If the arrow points right, you are free to move as long as you're in the right-hand lane; everyone else must stay stationary.
When you are turning left you must yield the right of way to oncoming traffic.?
Yes.unless you have a protected left turn such as with a green arrow.
When turning left on a green light and the oncoming traffic can not turn right on a red light who has the right away?
The left turn has right away
