Never seen that.  My interpretation:  people run this light often, so a sign was put up to tell them what they should already know..that even if it seems too long to them, they gotta wait for green to go.

I think the answer to your question is yes, right on red is allowed (assuming right on red is allowed in that jurisdiction generally).

[ice grillin you]

all it means is wait until the light is green to go....its for when people see the other light turn to yellow and start to creep forward in anticipation of the light turning green...basically its saying don't move at all until the light is green...has nothing to do with right turn on red

My Philly cop friend said you're not supposed to turn right on red with that sign but they don't enforce it

[ice grillin you]

they must have changed it then.....because for as long as i can remember it had nothing to do with right red turns

you used to see them quite a bit in the city at intersections that didn't have left turn arrows and people would try and jump the light so they didn't have to wait for the oncoming cars...that was the initial intent of the signs from way back

signs also were put out of commission a long time ago......but they havent all been taken down for whatever reason

Was just driving south on 95 and there was a bad car fire on the exit ramp...car was a classic baby blue vette...looked like a 60's model. Such a shame.

Saw two of the new Stingray Corvettes this weekend, they look great. 

Saw a Corvair for sale across from my parents place at the beach.  Looks pristine, appears to be orig paint, cream colored.  Didn't get a chance to check it out, but here's the craigslist ad.  http://delaware.craigslist.org/cto/4433477645.html


Nice to see GM has maintained their saftey standards of the 60's lately.

My Uncle lets one of his drivers take his tribute car on a test run, tells him to do a couple burnouts and put on a good show but not try to win the race because it's not a qualifier. Dude rolls his car, 70k worth of damage. He's not too happy.

Here's what the car looked like before his driver rolled it:


Here it is starting to roll:


If a video surfaces I'll post it, the driver is fine.

Am I allowed to turn right on red? That's the big question.

Old question, but I just saw it.

"No turn on red" is the only sign that legally prevents turning right on red in PA. "Wait for green" just means "don't start driving when the opposite direction starts driving because they get the green before you." That sign is in the process of being phased out. Another confusing one (to me, at least) is "Right turn signal". That means "there's a special green light for turning right in this particular lane, but you can still turn on red."
