Default Reduce Traffic - Turn left on a RED

Aside: does anyone know why some traffic signals here show a
green filter arrow *AND* a solid green light simultaneoulsy,
given that the latter allows a superset of the filtered traffic
to "go". ?


I can think of one traffic light where a green light means you can go
forward and turn right if no traffic is coming from the opposite
direction, but a green light *and* green arrow mean that there is a red
light for traffic coming the opposite direction so you can turn right
without needing to worry about oncoming traffic.
