[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm confused -- pedestrians shouldn't be crossing on red lights, so isn't it better for pedestrians if cars do their right turns on red lights? Is there any data actually supporting that this will be safer for pedestrians?[/quote] No, right turn on red isn't better for pedestrians. Pedestrians cross intersections in BOTH directions. The issue is the cars that want to turn right on red crawl forward while looking for an opportunity to turn and block the crosswalk for the pedestrians that DO have the right of way (and a green light/walk signal).[/quote]
