Since this proposal has been stuck in the moderators' mills for half a year and has not come up for a vote, for some reason that is incomprehensible to me, I put it forward again: I propose that the Road Safety Act be amended to allow turning right when the traffic lights are red wherever this is not prohibited by a special sign (provided, of course, that the direction is clear). A change in the law about 1 year ago already provided for such a possibility wherever a sign would allow it, but after 1 year I have not seen such a sign on our roads. In the justification of this amendment, the draftsman stated that a similar regulation is in place in the USA, but the reverse is also true there. It is allowed wherever it is not prohibited. I see no reason why drivers should not be trusted to judge when a direction is clear, as they do at all unsignalled junctions. Such an arrangement would significantly increase the capacity of the junctions and the congestion and unnecessary queuing at traffic lights, which would also have the effect of reducing air pollution. However, we would probably need to install some signs prohibiting right turns on red, for example when turning into city alleys, where the driver would have to cross the crosswalk and cycle lane, and vehicles are travelling at higher speeds (70km/h) on the alleys.
