When you are about to enter an intersection at the green colour of the traffic light you must also respect the meaning of the signs installed at the entrance of the intersection, except for the regulatory priority signs which will be respected only when the traffic lights do not work or when the traffic lights have in operation the intermittent yellow light signal.
When you encounter the sign “Straight ahead or to the right” and the traffic light is on green, you have the obligation to also respect the meaning of the mandatory sign. In this situation you will drive only in the directions straight ahead or to the right, the left turn being prohibited.
