When turning left on green -- if you have a left turn yield on green and the driver across from you has a yield sign and is turning right -- who has the right-of-way?
this is really a matter of courtesy, he must yield to you, but since you are turning LEFT, legally he has the right of way, UNLESS YOU ARE TURNING LEFT ON A GREEN ARROW then you will have the right of way.Another View: The question states that the left turner has a sign that says "Left Turn Yield on Green." In that case the left turner MUST yield to the right turner since even without signs, the right turn has the right-of-way and is the 'superior' vehicle in this scenario.Of course, as stated above, if there is a left turn arrow controlliing the left turn lane, then all other traffic must yield to the movement that is authorized by the signal, and in THAT scenario the left turner WOULD have the ROW over the opposing traffic.
Left turn on green light?
You're still required to yield to oncoming traffic.
When you are turning left you must yield the right of way to oncoming traffic.?
Yes.unless you have a protected left turn such as with a green arrow.
When turning left on green if you have a left turn yield on green and the driver across from you has a yield sign and is turning right who has the right of way?
Yes, absolutely. The only exception is if the driver turning right has a yield sign. This is one of the most common mistakes I see in the area I live. Many times, the driver turning right has a yield sign. That would give priority to the driver turning left. However, if the driver turning right has no yield sign, she has the priority. There are so many yield signs in my area that drivers turning left automatically assume they have the right-of-way even if no yield sign is present for the driver turning right.
When a Car a is making a left turn at a green yield light and car goes straight through and hits car a in passenger door?
I'm not sure what exactly your question is, but I believe that is the the "fault" of the car that is turning, even if the car going straight could/should have seen and been able to react to the turning car, the light is 'left turn yield on green' meaning, wait for the cars to go straight, and then turn when safe to do so.
Does right hand turn lane yield to oncoming left turn traffic onto a highway on ramp if no yield sign present for right hand turners.?
If you have a red light and left turners have a green light then yes. Otherwise the general rule is those turning left yield to those turning right.
Left turn arrow is not lit but the signal light you are facing is green can you turn?
yes but you must yield to the other cars. when the arrow is not lit it is an unprotected turn.
When you come to an left turn green arrow and it turns but the main light is green do you have to wait for the green light to come on again?
If you are referencing the "green arrow" to come on again, no, but you are suppose to "yield" to oncoming traffic, especially, more than likely, they have a green light to go. For example, if you are heading north in the north lane and a car is heading south on the south lane, but gets in the turning lane to make a left turn and there is no green arrow but their light is green, it is legal to turn, but you have to yield to oncoming traffic, make sure oncoming traffic is clear before you go out in the road. If not, it could cause a major accident.Added to clarify: If the green left arrow goes out and is replaced by a red left arrow or a red bullseye clearly meant to control the left turn lane, THEN you must wait until the next green arrow in order to make your turn.
If a truck that has a green Yield For Left Turn suddenly turns in front of you and you hit the truck who is at fault?

When you are turning left you must yield the right of way to oncoming traffic?
When turning left, you must yield the right of way to oncoming traffic. There is no such thing as left of way, unless you are protected by a green left turn light. Always wait to see what the oncoming traffic is doing before turning left. Remember...there is no such thing as "left of way".
What are the rules for the separate left turn signals in New Jersey how does these differ from each other 1 normal signal 2 separate left turn signal 3 signal with left on green arrow only sign?
Normal signal: Turn left if the signal is green and there is no on coming traffic from the other side. Separate left turn signal: Turn left if the arrow is green. Do not wait for the on coming traffic. It is intended to move traffic through from the left lane. If the arrow is red or yellow, but the main signal is green, you may still turn left, but must yield to on coming traffic from the other side. Left on green arrow only: You must not turn left until the small arrow is green. Many drivers from out of state are confused by this, but if obeyed well, the traffic has the highest flow possibility using these principles. Out of state drivers tend to stay parked at the Separate left turn signal, if it is red or yellow, even when there is no on coming traffic and the main signal is green. It is a better safe than sorry approach, but it slows down traffic in the big picture.
Can you turn left when the traffic light is green or do I have to wait for the green turning light?
Depends. If the light has a sign next to it that says 'Yield on green light' it means you can go when the light is green and there is no traffic coming from the opposite direction that could hit you. If there is no sign wait for the arrow.
