Allows motor vehicles to turn left on red light when turning onto a one-way street
HB 2810 amends state traffic laws to allow drivers to turn left onto a designated one-way street or into one-way traffic moving in the same direction when facing a steady red light. This change applies to all vehicles and requires drivers to yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and other traffic proceeding as directed by the signal. Local authorities and the state transportation commission retain the ability to prohibit this maneuver at specific intersections by posting a sign if safety conditions warrant it. The bill also clarifies existing rules for right turns on red and updates references to pedestrian control signals within the traffic code.
