What does the red circle and slash on this sign mean?
The rule
On a regulation sign, a red circle and slash across a symbol means you may not do the action shown (a right turn, for example), or that some vehicles may not use the road.
A red circle and slash across a symbol means the action shown is not allowed. This sign means you may not turn left here.
From the New York State Driver's Manual, page 29. This question is our own wording of that rule. The handbook and the DMV have the final word.
