What must you do when making a right turn on red?

  1. Speed up to merge into traffic

  2. Stop completely and yield to pedestrians and vehicles

  3. Signal your intention then proceed without stopping

  4. Check for bicyclists only

The correct answer is: Stop completely and yield to pedestrians and vehicles

When making a right turn on red, the law requires that you come to a complete stop before turning. This stopping rule ensures that you have a clear view of any oncoming traffic and pedestrians crossing in front of you. Yielding is crucial because it allows you to assess and prioritize the safety of others on the road. You must be attentive to both pedestrians who may be crossing and vehicles approaching from your left that may have the right of way. By stopping completely and yielding, you minimize the risk of accidents and help ensure a smooth transition into the flow of traffic once it is safe to proceed.
