A recent study by the Mineta Transportation Institute found that allowing right turns on red lights poses a risk to pedestrians and bicyclists, as most drivers do not come to a complete stop. The authors recommend that states should allow cities to prohibit right turns on red as the default practice and only allow them at select intersections based on specific criteria. Previous studies have shown that intersections where right turns on red are permitted have high rates of pedestrian collisions, emphasizing the need for increased safety measures to protect vulnerable road users.
