Outside New York City, you are stopped at a red light and plan to turn right. No sign forbids a turn on red, and a bicycle lane runs along the curb. You have looked left, and cross traffic is clear. What else must you do before you turn?
A is stopped at a red light and intends to turn right. A marked bicycle lane runs beside the right curb; the caption states that cross traffic is clear. No bicyclist or answer path is added to the question image.
Correct answer: Look to the right and behind you over your right shoulder for a bicyclist, then look left again.
Why
A right turn on red is allowed only after a complete stop, and only where no sign forbids it. You must yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk and to all other traffic that is lawfully using the intersection. A bicyclist can move up quickly along the curb while your attention is on cars coming from the left.
