Being from MN and getting stuck at the same red (169 and Old Shakopee) almost every day, that's good news for me! I thought I was breaking the law every day. Kind of takes some of the thrill out of it, though. Carry a copy of it with you. You might still get pulled over. I did.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #195000 deanjenn (User) Live 2 Ride - Ride 2 Live Gold Boarder Posts: 621 Re:Left on Red?? 3 Years ago   http://www.amadirectlink.com/legisltn/state_moto_laws_pg1.pdf This gives some info about it. I hope it works, I'm not real good with dooing links.

I'm gonna have to check to see what the law really says about this. I haven't been cited (caught) yet, but you never know...   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #195029 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Left on Red?? 3 Years ago   See if your state has something like this - MMSC. The sites are a good resource if your state has one.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #195038 takehikes (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2279 Re:Left on Red?? 3 Years ago   Not sure of the law here in California but I do know here in Napa we have the worst traffic engineer on the planet. Damn lights don't even turn for me in my Isuzu Rodeo let alone on the Roadie. So I sit for what I believe to be a reasonable time and then go on through on the Roadie. Lights are so badly done here no way a judge would convict me and other than one fat ass bike cop we have here (he has an attitude and a half, even the other cops hate him) most of the cops would never write you. Our lights are so screwed up as we have a number of state highways that are also main streets here so control of lights is split between the city and CAlTrans which means no one is in charge.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/05/14 09:39 By takehikes.   http://aeechoppers.blogspot.com/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #195045 dstnly2000 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 25 Re:Left on Red?? 3 Years ago   I was an officer here in Ohio up until last year. I have never known a cop to write a citation to a motorcyclist for turning on red, as long as you waited for at least 2 light cycles. Just watch out for those state boys, they have no discretion built into them.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/05/14 10:00 By dstnly2000.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #195046 Scotto (User) Hmmmm Platinum Boarder Posts: 1576 Re:Left on Red?? 3 Years ago   I leave for work quite early and have waited and waited. Not sure if its legal to do here in Florida but, I do it on a regular basis at one particular light only at an intersection close to home. Of course I do use "common sense" and wait for the opposing light to turn red after first waiting for it to cycle and when that lane clears off I go turning left on red so as not to get T-boned. If the LEO want to cite me I will take my chances with my explanation.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #195079 Frank_W (User) Riding The Filthy Sow!

No problems.   Logged     My Music Whatever...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #195089 slyguy (User) What happens in the garage stays in the garage. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1869 Re:Left on Red?? 3 Years ago   I don't think we have such a law in AZ (wish we did). I have gone though after a reasonable amount of time. Usually I'm detected though except the light outside by my dealer (go figure). If I pull up, it doesn't detect me. The dealer is near a busy road, so I would never want to make a left there without a green light. I've put the kickstand down and gone over and pressed the crosswalk button to get it to change.   Logged     2004 Road Star Silverado (original owner), over 55K mostly trouble-free miles Patriot Guard Rider, IBA Member, Star Touring & Riding   The administrator has disabled public write access. #195181 noxqsays (User) Why did I move to FL from MI?
