You can't obviously see the vertical signals from the aerial imagery.

In the street coming from NW, there is a "continuous flow to left" -- that means
you can go left even with a Red-light-signal.

In the street coming from SW, there is a "continuous flow to right" -- you can
go right regardless of the traffic signal once again.

They *are* CFIs.
