Left Turn on Red
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_on_red#Asia

It has been ages since my Ujian KPP.
So want to ask fellow new driver, do you encounter this question?
or
Any media or govn announce this rules?

if in Malaysia, there is normally a yellow sign telling that you can turn left if there is no oncoming traffic from the right.

Putrajaya using this for ages dude...

Do this applies anywhere else or only putrajaya.?
I don't remember when is the last time i go to putrajaya..

which mean, only can turn left on red if there's signage?

Sarawak and Putrajaya are the only 2 place I know can.

yes korek... but only for certain place. . in kuantan is very common, but i dont see in kl or other place. not every place adopt this rules.. normally at ktn kena with other ppl when i dont move during red where is no car. haha

Apart from Putrajaya, there are a few (rare) places in KL that allows this.

I cannot recall seeing this in PJ, Subang etc. But since Shah Alam has 10,000 roundabouts, I guess it applies there too? haha

Should not this rules be widely use regardless of signage?
It help ease traffic queuing right?

most of our busy traffic light have dedicated left lane to turn left, hence no need for this signage, unless busy traffic light with limited/no space for dedicated lane.

not-so-busy traffic light still can wait until turn green.

jalan ampang and jalan sultan ismail....KLCC bound.

Can left turn when red

you are permitted to turn left on red if there is signage. cyberjaya also has this rule. can turn left if there is no oncoming traffic.

I agree with this. But looking at the demographics of the road users in different areas, I would not trust the users in being able to exercise discretion wisely. Those areas/states where the users are in no hurry/smarter, then I think it is ok. To implement this nationwide, no.

Only a few junctions where signs are displayed right? I've seen them at the Shaftsbury traffic light.

The problem is it is turn left if no vehicle or pedestrian.
Yet most people continue to turn even if got vehicle coming or pedestrian trying to cross.

There are signboards in certain areas. Alam Damai has them as well.

Also, many roads have filter lanes for left turns already.

Sarawak is automatically turn left when road is clear.

Kuching definitely can, "Turn Left When Exit Is Clear"

I have done this a few times in front of police and JPJ just to see what happens...


so far none of them have stop me from doing it...
