Is it permissible to turn right on a straight and right turn lane when the traffic light is red?
1 Answers
Whether you can turn right on a straight and right turn lane when the traffic light is red depends on the situation. Here are the details: Cases where turning right on red is allowed: Generally, traffic signals include circular lights and arrow lights. When a circular red light is illuminated at an intersection, vehicle passage is prohibited, but right turns are permitted provided they do not interfere with the normal passage of other vehicles or pedestrians. Cases where turning right on red is not allowed: If the traffic signal is an arrow light and the right turn arrow is red, or if there is a sign at the intersection stating "No right turn on red," turning right is not permitted in these situations. Violations will be treated as running a red light.
