"Washington, D.C., will end most right-on-red turns by 2025. Already, the state of Hawaii has prohibited them on a tourist-dense stretch of road in Honolulu. The city of Berkeley in California is considering banning right on red at all intersections. Near the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, the city last fall banned right turns at 50 signalized intersections in its downtown core."

@MolnarSteven @Bluabirdo I'm not faulting the drivers -- they are just going with what the paint gives them. My issue is with the paint itself. If this is meant to be a turn lane here, then the crossover area needs to be set farther back from the intersection and marked as such. If it's not meant to be a turn lane, then that's a different set of pavement markings (preferably with #RightOnRed disallowed)
