When seeing a sign over your lane with an arrow and the word "only" below it you should:

  1. Go the direction of the arrow

  2. Always make a lane change

  3. Look for a destination sign to follow

  4. Stop immediately

The correct answer is: Go the direction of the arrow

When seeing a sign over your lane with an arrow and the word "only" below it, this typically means that the lane is designated for a specific type of traffic or for certain turns. For example, if the arrow points to the left, it may mean that the lane is for left turns only. Therefore, the option A Go in the direction of the arrow is the correct answer. Option B: Always make a lane change is incorrect because it is not always necessary to change lanes when seeing this type of sign. Option C: Look for a destination sign to follow is also incorrect because following a specific destination sign is not always the purpose of these signs. And lastly, option D: Stop immediately is incorrect because in most cases you should continue driving in the designated direction.
