Brothers, may I ask how to see the left turn at the Taiwan traffic lights? Even if the green light for straight driving is on, you still can't turn left... Do you have to wait for the left turn light to turn on before you can turn? And when turning right, can you turn as soon as the straight driving light turns on, or do you also have to look at the separate right turn light ?

Specifically, it depends. Traffic lights in Taiwan are divided into circular and arrow-indicated ones. For circular lights, you can turn left directly. But for arrow-indicated ones, you have to wait for the left turn signal to turn on before you can turn. As for right turns, it's similar to left turns. However, the right turn signal with arrow indication is usually on at the same time as the straight-ahead signal, so you can basically turn right when the straight-ahead signal is on.

Interpretation of the situation where the friend above violated the law and turned. It's definitely not that the police officer is too kind, or the elder sister is too beautiful. The police officer must know that mainland residents do not have an international driver's license, so why bother detaining you. The mainland is not a contracting party to the International Driving Permit, and the International Driving Permit must be presented together with the local driver's license to be valid. Why not handle it, because there is no specific handling clause. Or understand it as a blind spot in the regulations ? Taiwan(China) Q&A
