When can you turn left at a red traffic light?

When turning from a one-way street onto another one-way street.
When there is a sign permitting left turns on red.
When the way is clear and there is no oncoming traffic.
Left turns are never allowed on a red light.

The correct answer is: Left turns are never allowed on a red light.

Driving laws and regulations vary by country and even by state or province, so it is important to familiarize yourself with the specific rules for the area you are driving in. In most cases, turning left at a red light is not permitted and is considered a traffic violation. This is because a red light indicates that all traffic must stop, and a left turn requires crossing oncoming traffic. Even if there is a sign permitting left turns on red, it is important to always exercise caution and only do so when the way is clear and there is no oncoming traffic. However, in some areas, it may be allowed to turn left at a red light when turning from a one-way street onto another one-way street. Therefore, it is always safest to assume that left turns are never allowed on a red light unless otherwise indicated by a sign or local regulations.
