When you intend to enter an intersection and you encounter the sign “Straight ahead or left” and the traffic light is on the green colour, you have the obligation to respect the meaning of the mandatory sign “Straight ahead or left” together with the meaning of the signal of the traffic light. Therefore, in this situation the passage is allowed to you and you will drive only in the directions straight ahead or to the left, the turn to the right being prohibited.
