You think pedestrians are hiding in bushes waiting to jump out?
In a densely populated city with lots of foot traffic? Sure, ban right on red, too many cars in cities to begin with.
But lots of cities have spent decades expanding and there's hardly anyone walking once you're a couple miles from downtown except for certain areas. Same for small towns.
Making it all legal one way or the other in a state just makes zero sense.
What's wrong with just putting up a sign by the light if it's not allowed?
The problem is it isn't zero pedestrians, it is slightly more than zero so driversquit looking as it seems there never are any and then the exception happens and they didn't look.
