Can you turn right when the straight arrow is red?
1 Answers
Whether you can turn right when the straight arrow is red depends on the situation: 1. If the arrow light only indicates straight and left turns, and there is no right-turn indication, you can turn right when the straight arrow is red; 2. If there is an arrow indicating a right turn, you need to follow the right-turn signal's instruction. When turning right, be careful not to affect straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians on the crosswalk, otherwise you may be penalized. Whether the straight arrow is red or it's a full red light allowing a right turn, the vehicle must be in the rightmost motor vehicle lane. Failure to follow the correct lane may result in fines, points deducted, and could easily lead to rear-end collisions.
