Can you turn right on red in Tennessee?
I’m graduating from college fairly soon, and I’ve always wanted to live in Tennessee—or Nashville more specifically. That said, I don’t want to get a ticket when I visit, so I want to brush up on local driving laws. Is it possible to turn right on red in Tennessee?

Congrats on graduating from college—it’s a big step in your life! You can turn right on red in Tennessee as long as no signs prevent or expressly prohibit the maneuver.
Before you execute a right turn on red, just make sure to follow these simple safety steps to avoid an accident or a ticket:
- Come to a complete stop at the white line, not at the intersection. After coming to a stop, roll forward slowly and come to a complete stop again before you execute the turn.
- Yield to all pedestrians and cyclists going through the intersection.
- Look to your left again to ensure that no motorist is barreling through the intersection at a high rate of speed.
