The blinking green light in Canada signifies that a driver can turn left at a traffic light intersection when it is safe to do so, even when the light is red. This is a unique traffic signal used in some Canadian cities to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion.
When approaching a blinking green traffic light in Canada, drivers should treat it as a yield sign. This means they should slow down, be prepared to stop if necessary, and proceed with caution.
The duration for a traffic light arrow to change from green to red varies depending on the traffic control system and local regulations. Typically, the green light lasts between 15 to 60 seconds, followed by a yellow light that usually lasts about 3 to 5 seconds before turning red. Some intersections may also have a specific time for pedestrian crossing signals that can affect the timing. Always refer to local traffic guidelines for precise durations.
