No, going by the law ... You cannot take a free left turn if the traffic authorities have provided a Signal specifically for taking a left turn.
Standing at the penultimate signal before Null Stop, Kothrud, Pune, this is what I witnessed couple of days back.
Two Traffic Custodians busy issuing receipts to those taking a left turn inspite of the STOP signal. But who were stopping the law breakers , a youth may be of 20-22 yrs and to his support a person who must have witnessed atleast 55 rainy seasons. Both civilians with whistles blowing and getting people to the side making them pay for the decision.
As I passed them i saw the youth in his eyes ... I felt like he was enjoying the authority the was given , but with the hope that he behaves with atleast traffic responsibility that he learnt that day.
I hope some day People of Pune learn to drive with some responsibility and respect to the three colours on the pole for their and more for their dependant families benefits.
All this was happening on LAW COLLEGE road in Pune.
