If they had one up at that intersection, you'll most likely see the flash & get one in the mail. Just be careful next time & remember in order to turn left, you need to have a green arrow or yield to oncoming traffic with a solid green light. [ LadyH's advice column | Ask LadyH A Question ]

Assuming you live in the US, try to remember that a left hand turn ALWAYS crosses traffic. Remember that when crossing traffic, you must ALWAYS go on green, never on red.
