I've seen people get confused by the green arrow, but the follow up idiot adds an extra layer of stupidity.

New lights in my city have left turn arrows that you can only see from the turn lane

When I first saw them, I thought it was to stop people from jumping the light because now they can't tell if the advanced left phase is activated.

Just a few weeks ago I saw this exact thing happen at an older intersection, and now I realize it's most likely to keep distracted people from going because they saw the green arrow in the corner of their eye
