This image depicts a nighttime scene on a multi-lane asphalt roadway in Dali City, China, observed from a low angle, potentially from within a vehicle. Overhead, two red traffic signals are active: a red left-turn arrow signal on the left, displaying Chinese characters "请等待" (qǐng děngdài - please wait) above the arrow, and a circular red signal to its right. The roadway shows faint lane markings and appears reflective under illumination. A segmented white barrier or planter box separates the lanes on the left. Numerous streetlights with strong starburst lens flares illuminate the scene. Trees with dark foliage line the right side of the road, and in the distance, various illuminated signs and building lights are visible, along with the red taillights of other vehicles. An obscured dark element occupies the lower right foreground. No explicit individuals or specific actions are discernible beyond the implicit waiting at a traffic light.
