In California, a red light means that
there is time for only three more cars
to make it through the intersection.

In New York State, particularly Nassau County, they have "right on red" cameras, giving out red-light tickets if you don't make a complete stop for 2 seconds before making the right turn.

This is solely a revenue gain -- even if it legal to make a right turn on red, you must have a stopwatch on your person?

The crooked county officials could easily just put up a "no right turn on red" sign, alleviating the aggravation of a motorist counting too fast. But no, gotta get those bucks.
