Can You Turn Left at a Round Red Light?

[WalterDella]

At a solid round red light, left turns are not permitted; right turns are allowed only if they do not impede the passage of released vehicles or pedestrians. Traffic safety signal indications: According to Article 38 of the 'Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China' regarding motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle signal lights: When the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of released straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians; when the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed; when the red light is on, vehicle passage is prohibited. Right turns at a red light: When the red light is on, right-turning vehicles may proceed provided they do not hinder the movement of released vehicles or pedestrians.
