No Turn On Red

Another turn inviting a summons involves turning right when the traffic light is red and a No Turn On Red sign is posted. A very commonly issued violation. This turn violation may be caused for a variety of reasons, inattention, rushing, etc.

However placement of the signs No Turn On Red differ. Some are located just at the stop line while others are set back (before the stop line) which drivers thus pass and are missed. Other No Turn On Red signs are posted high overhanging the street with the traffic light and some are posted in both places.

Main intersections with a No Turn On Red are where most infractions seem to occur particularly where pedestrian crosswalks are present.
