There are some intersections where you wouldn't ever be able to make a left turn if that were true. |

DC law just said that if you were in the interection on red, you were int eh wrong. That way, no arguements.

that sucks. Can you find the statute online? FWIW, I've verified that you won't get a red-light camera trigger from doing this in DC. So no worries. I guess if it's on the books and a cop wanted to be a d!ck, he could ticket you for it. |

Thanks. The problem has been well documented, but not worth my time to find them. We get some inside publications at work that have some of the stories.
