Right turns on red allowed in DC after vote
Massachusetts and New York City are the only places still banning right turns on red. Washington DC relented, to post intersection signs before permitting turns. The district had argued heavy pedestrian and tourist traffic made turns unsafe, despite a proposed Energy Department rule tying privileges to such turns. Also noted, in 1944 the federal government seized Montgomery Ward’s Chicago HQ after a NLRB ruling was defied.
