No Right Turn on Red Signal?

[delarosa]

Hi! Just got apprehended recently for turning right in an intersection while on red signal. I was in Paseo de Roxas turning right to Ayala Ave. I was told by MAPSA that this is illegal even with no sign not to turn right on red signal. Is this correct? Thanks!

[Bravoexo]

Yes. Why couldn't you have waited for the green light?

ang alam ko, unless may sign na no right turn on red signal, pwede ka magright turn anytime.

kaya lang monkey republic of makati ni binay yan...so they have their own rules...

[delarosa]

I did not wait for the green light since I thought it was not illegal.

Yun din reasoning ko, since naglalagay sila sa intersection kung bawal, then pwede sa intersections with no signs. Like on the same intersection, kabilang side, paseo din pero coming from the other side , may stoplight na right arrow. Then bawal mag right unless mag green na yung right arrow.

ganun nga sa makati. medyo nakakalito. there are intersections where there are signs that say "no right turn on red signal" and there are some that don't. of course, a driver's assumption is, which is the accepted norm, that if it's not explicitly stated, then it's legal. the default is "right turn anytime with care". anyway, ganyan talaga ang mapsa. pugad ng kurakot. lalo na pagweekends. especially when turning left from buendia to paseo. sasadyain nilang ma-beating the red light ka.

delarosa, yun nga nakakainis dun. and mahirap makipagtalo sa mapsa or any galamay ni binay.

nacarnap nga yung kotse ng isang tao sa impound lot ng makati, natalo pa yung owner nung kinasuhan niya sila binay, yan pa kaya na right turn lang. grabe talaga makati

basta red; ke red blinking light or steady red
light or red stop sign, "dapat mag STOP ka completely",
hinde rin pwede yung "rolling stop lang" then proceed
before making a right turn. siguro tuloy,tuloy kang
nag right turn siguro dahil akala mo pwede dahil walang
dumadaan sa kaliwa mo. traffic violation talaga
yun, nahuli na ako minsan sa ganun. kaya ako,
tuwing me red light or stop sign, completely stop
ako bago kumakanan or pakaliwa man kahit walang
dumadaang sasakyan.

Hi Fast Eddie, nag complete stop ako since may car sa harap ko na huminto, tapos tumabi for me to pass. Ang sabi kasi sa akin, no right turn on red signal all the time. Even if mag complete stop ka, then make a right turn, kung red pa rin, huli pa rin yun.

check out the intersection of ayala and makati ave (specially ung pakanan papuntang landmark). vehicles turn right even if may red signal all the time ... unless maisipan ng mapsa na hulihin ka. the red signal is for vehicles that are going straight thru the intersection to stop. those making a right turn may make a right turn with caution. now pag may sign na "no right turn on red signal", un obviously stop ka talaga nun.

no right turn on red signal... kapag may incoming traffic lang dun sa lane na un (coming from your left side... or the opposite lane turning left).

ogags naman kung manghuhuli pa ng ganyan habang walang dumadaan sa lane na un.
