Why do we always leave of the last part of “Right on Red”? Between my house and my office this morning I watched 8 different cars at 4 different intersections turn right on red and not even slow down. Even in an article on Wikipedia they mention that most people don’t get the “AFTER STOP” part…
From Wikipedia:
“Right turn on red (RTOR) is a principle of law permitting vehicles at a traffic light showing a red signal to turn right (almost always after a complete stop) when the way is clear, in a country with right-hand traffic. RTOR has been practiced in the western United States for more than 50 years, with the eastern states adopting the law in the 1970s.”
ALMOST ALWAYS AFTER A COMPLETE STOP?!?!? Really? One of these idiots will kill or seriously injure someone one day and never believe it was their fault.
