Can you turn right on red in Missouri?

I work for Anheuser-Busch and they’re transferring me to their head office in St. Louis. I’ve never been to Missouri before, so I want to get myself ready for driving in a new state. Is it legal to turn right on red in Missouri?

Congrats on your upcoming move! You can turn right on red in Missouri, just so long as no sign specifically says that you can’t. Downtown St. Louis has several one-way streets and busy intersections, so if you’re in this area, pay attention to the posted signs, especially during rush hour or during Cardinals games.
If you’re able to make a right turn on red, just make sure to follow these simple steps to stay safe:
  • Come to a complete stop at the painted white line and then inch forward toward the intersection.
  • Yield to all pedestrians, motorists, and cyclists.
  • Right before you turn, look to your left to double-check that no motorists are entering the intersection.
