In New York City, right turns on red are prohibited at all intersections, except where signs are posted to permit right turns on red. Outside of NYC, the law on right turns is basically the same as Wisconsin's. So New York City and Montreal Island may be the last holdouts on this continent.
Two years ago, the New York Legislature voted to allow right turns on red in the borough of Staten Island; but bike and pedestrian activists apparently persuaded the Governor to veto the law. A New York group called "Transportation Alternatives" has useful information about this issue on their website, at http://www.transalt.org/press/askta/010806.html. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Paolino" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 25, 2003 3:43 PM Subject: [Bikies] CORRECTION: No Right on Red > In an earlier message, I commented that Quebec was probably the only place where right turn on red was universally prohibited. I misspoke (and I think I did see it in the news this spring, but forgot about it). Right turns on red except where specifically prohibited and on the island of Montreal have been legal since April.
