Is turning right on red allowed in Kansas and under what conditions?

• A. Never allowed.
• B. Allowed only after you come to a complete stop and then proceed with caution.
• C. Allowed without stopping if traffic is light.
• D. Generally allowed after a complete stop and yielding to pedestrians and traffic, unless a sign prohibits.

Answer: (D)

Turning right on red is allowed in Kansas after you come to a full stop and yield to pedestrians and other traffic, unless a sign prohibits it. You must stop at the stop line or before entering the crosswalk, then check that the way is clear for you and that no pedestrians are crossing. If it’s safe, you may turn right on the red light; if there’s a “No turn on red” sign or a red arrow, you must wait. The correct choice captures both the stop-and-yield requirement and the potential for prohibition by signage, whereas options that skip the stopping or the yielding step aren’t consistent with Kansas rules.
