response: "Response from the Ministry of Infrastructure\nLaw on Road Traffic Rules\
  \ (Official Journal of the Republic of Slovenia, No 82/13 - officially consolidated\
  \ text, 69/17 - corrected version), 68/16 and 54/17), Article 27(3) provides that\
  \ a traffic regulation may be established on a road for a specified period of time,\
  \ which may not be shorter than three months and not longer than one year, which\
  \ permits, restricts or obliges road users to behave in a manner which may be contrary\
  \ to the traffic rules laid down by the Road Traffic Rules Act (the Experiment).\
  \ The experimental traffic arrangement shall be marked with the prescribed traffic\
  \ signals in such a way as to enable all road users to participate unambiguously\
  \ and safely in road traffic. Experimental traffic arrangements include the possibility\
  \ of introducing safe right-turn movements when the traffic lights are red.\nIn\
  \ the period between the entry into force of the Road Traffic Rules Act and the\
  \ present day, only an oral parliamentary question has been submitted to the Ministry\
  \ of Infrastructure to consider the possibility of introducing safe right turns\
  \ on red lights, while no initiative has been taken by the national road operator\
  \ or the municipal road operator to introduce experimental traffic arrangements\
  \ for right turns on red lights.\nSimilarly, in the context of the working groups\
  \ for the preparation of the by-laws on traffic signalling and road equipment, the\
  \ conditions for the implementation and the content of the study on the experimental\
  \ traffic arrangement, no consensus was reached on the proposed new traffic signalling\
  \ to indicate the experimental traffic arrangement, due to its negative impact on\
  \ road safety.   \n "
