Traffic light signals and their meanings
9 signs in this category
Traffic light signals control the flow of vehicles and pedestrians at Bermuda junctions and crossings. Understanding each light state — and the sequence between them — is essential for safe, legal driving.
Study tip: Learn the full light sequence and what amber means. A common test question is what to do on a green filter arrow versus a full green light.
Amber light
AMBER means stop at the stop line. You may only continue if you have already crossed the line or are so close that pulling up might cause a collision.

Green light
GREEN means you may go if the way is clear. Take special care if turning and give way to pedestrians who are crossing.
