Can you turn left on a red light?

Turning left on a red light is permissible in Texas, but only under specific circumstances, which is why the correct answer is that it is allowed only if you are on a one-way street. In this situation, a driver can make a left turn from a one-way street onto another one-way street when facing a red light, provided it is safe to do so and there are no signs indicating otherwise.

This rule acknowledges that certain road configurations warrant more leniency in traffic laws. In contrast, when on a two-way street or facing a red light at a standard intersection, turning left would not be allowed as it could lead to unsafe situations, such as conflicting with oncoming traffic. Therefore, being aware of road types and associated traffic signals is crucial for making safe left turns at intersections.
