Lane use, turn control, reserved lane and parking signs

ICBC's driving guide: Signs, signals and road markings

These four families all answer "where may this vehicle be, and when?"

Lane use signs sit above a lane or beside it before the intersection and show which movements that lane allows. Once you are in a designated lane you must follow its arrows — and you may not move into or out of a designated lane while you are inside the intersection.
