Is it legal to turn right on red in Michigan?

• A. No, right on red is never allowed.
• B. Yes, after a complete stop and yield to pedestrians and traffic, unless signs prohibit.
• C. Only when a sign allows it.
• D. Only during certain hours.

Answer: (B)

Michigan allows turning right on red after you come to a complete stop, as long as you yield to pedestrians and all other traffic and there’s no sign prohibiting it. The essential steps are: stop fully, look for people crossing and for oncoming vehicles, then turn when it’s safe. If there’s a red arrow, or a “No Turn on Red” sign, you must not turn. There are no time-of-day restrictions; the key factor is the presence of the sign or signal at the intersection.
