Support:
01A Section 1116 of the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law specifies that traffic facing a flashing yellow X signal may travel in any lane over which such signal is shown preparatory to making a left turn, using proper caution.

At this time, the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law does not allow a signal face to have either of the two signal indications involving white turn arrows.
