When is a left turn on red allowed in Michigan?

• A. Never allowed.
• B. After a complete stop, when no sign prohibits it, and when it is safe to turn.
• C. Only during daylight hours.
• D. If the driver has a permit.

Answer: (B)

In Michigan, you may turn left on red only after you come to a complete stop on a one-way street, and you may turn onto another one-way street, provided there’s no sign prohibiting the turn and it’s safe to do so. This means you must yield to pedestrians and oncoming traffic before making the turn.

The correct idea matches these conditions: stop fully, there must be no sign against the turn, and you may proceed only when it’s safe. The other statements aren’t accurate: left on red isn’t never allowed, there’s no daytime-hour restriction, and a permit doesn’t grant extra rights for turning on red.
