Practice question

It is against the law to make a left turn on red light EXCEPT:

  1. At a crosswalk
  2. At an intersection
  3. From one one-way street to another
  4. Onto a highway

Answer: A — At a crosswalk

In Arkansas, it is against the law to make a left turn on a red light, except when turning from a one-way street onto another one-way street. When turning left on a red light from a one-way street to another one-way street, you are only crossing lanes of traffic moving in the same direction, reducing the risk of conflict with oncoming traffic. Options B, C, and D are not correct because making a left turn on a red light at an intersection, onto a highway, or at a crosswalk is generally not allowed in Arkansas. Making a left turn on a red light at these locations can pose a higher risk of accidents due to the potential for conflicting traffic movements.
