For D.C. Locals Only
Picture the intersection of K St. and Connecticut, NW. If you are coming west down K St. (in the local lane) and are at the corner of Connecticut (you know, where the road sort of curves and it's not quite a right turn, but not quite straight either...where the metro exits??) and the light is red, do you have to wait for the light to turn, or can you make a right turn on red?
I ask because it doesn't feel like a right turn to me...instead, it feels like that light is VERY specifically directed at the local lanes and should be respected regardless of whether or not there are pedestrians (or cross-intersection traffic) in the way.
And yet, the guy behind me tonight coming home from a happy hour sure didn't agree.

I agree with you of course! You didn't get rear ended di you?
