A steady yellow X lane use signal indicates what?

A steady yellow X lane use signal indicates that drivers should move out of that lane as soon as it is safe to do so. This signal serves as a warning that the lane is no longer available for use, but it does not mean an immediate or abrupt stop is required; rather, drivers should find a safe opportunity to change lanes. This is essential for maintaining traffic flow and ensuring safety, allowing drivers behind to anticipate that the lane will soon no longer be open.

While some may think that it signals to prepare for more drastic measures such as stopping or continuing to use the lane, those options are not appropriate with a steady yellow X. The primary focus with this signal is a proactive lane change, emphasizing the need for awareness and decision-making while driving.
