Which statement is NOT a permitted condition for turning right on red in New York?

• A. Turn on red after a full stop if there is no sign prohibiting the turn.
• B. Turn on red after a full stop if there is no red arrow.
• C. Turn on red after a full stop if there is no signal to prohibit.
• D. Turn on red when there is a red arrow.

Answer: (D)

In New York, turning right on red is allowed after you’ve made a complete stop unless something specifically says you can’t. You must also yield to pedestrians and vehicles before turning. If there’s no sign prohibiting the turn, you may proceed after stopping. If there’s no red arrow, the absence of that arrow doesn’t block the turn on red. If there’s no signal that prohibits turning on red, you’re allowed to proceed after stopping. However, if there is a red right-turn arrow, that direction is prohibited — you cannot turn right on red when a red arrow is displayed. The red arrow overrides the general permission, signaling you must wait for a green signal or arrow before turning.
