Under what circumstances is a right turn not allowed when the red light is on?
1 Answers
If the traffic signal has a right-turn arrow light and it is currently red, then a right turn is not permitted. A right turn is not always allowed when the red light is on; it depends on the specific traffic signal configuration. Generally, there are three scenarios: 1. If there are only left-turn and straight-through signal lights without a dedicated right-turn signal, a right turn is permitted. However, drivers must ensure safety by yielding to oncoming vehicles and pedestrians. 2. If the traffic signal has a right-turn arrow light and it is red, a right turn is prohibited. 3. If it's a full circular red light without any supplementary signs, a right turn is allowed.
