Can You Turn Right Without Looking at the Red Light?
1 Answers
When making a right turn at an intersection with a right-turn arrow signal light, vehicles are not allowed to turn right if the signal light is red; if there is no right-turn arrow signal light at the intersection, vehicles in the right-turn lane can turn right even if the signal light is red, but they must not hinder the passage of vehicles and pedestrians that have been given the right of way. Below are specific details about right turns: Specific situations where you need to wait for a red light when turning right: At intersections with circular signal lights or without any auxiliary signs, you do not need to wait for a red light to turn right; if the signal light is an arrow type, you need to wait for a red light to turn right. When making a right turn, vehicles must drive in the right-turn lane. If you turn right from a straight lane or a left-turn lane, it will increase traffic congestion and may result in penalties from law enforcement for running a red light. Things to pay attention to when making a right turn: Check the traffic signal light. If it is a circular or spherical light, right turns are generally not restricted, but there may be exceptions where a sign near the light states "No Right Turn on Red," which requires special attention; check roadside signs. Sometimes, even if the signal light is a circular type, specific locations may have signs prohibiting right turns or limiting right turns to certain times, which requires special attention; observe the ground guide lines. On some roads, the rightmost guide line may not have a right-turn arrow, which also requires special attention.
