I move to Georgia, and I was a bit cautious at first, never turning, even if people would blow their horns at me or flash their headlights.
Then I'd started to buckle, starting to turn. I'd learnt tonight I've been contravening the law.
In Florida:
What does the red arrow mean?
(FAQs) - Traffic Signals - Florida Department of Transportation
In Georgia:
GA § 40-6-21. Meaning of traffic signals
...
(F) Traffic, except pedestrians, facing a steady RED ARROW signal may not enter the intersection to make the movement indicated by such arrow and, unless entering the intersection to make such other movement as is permitted by other indications shown at the same time, shall stop at a clearly marked stop line or, if there is no stop line, before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, if there is no crosswalk, before entering the intersection, and shall remain standing until an indication to make the movement indicated by such arrow is shown;
(G) Unless otherwise directed by a pedestrian signal, pedestrians facing a steady RED ARROW signal shall not enter the roadway; and
(H) Traffic, except pedestrians, facing a flashing RED ARROW signal, after stopping as provided in subparagraph (A) of this paragraph, may make a right turn but shall stop and remain stopped for pedestrians and yield the right of way to other traffic proceeding as directed by the signal at such intersection.
