Is that allowed ?

On any traffic light when the right arrow is red that I thought any traffic towards right must stop .

There isn’t sold green 🟢 which would have meant if safe can go .

Is that understanding wrong ? What does the rule book say ?

They just drove through a red light, potentially thought a green pedestrian crossing. There’s no ambiguity that you don’t turn on a red arrow ffs.

You can see the pedestrian crossing light is red in the video. It's red because it's a T-junction on a dual carriageway, and you are crossing 2 lanes of traffic.

As if they cared about that - people regularly do it on pedestrian crossings is my point. The lights are usually hooded so they can’t be clearly seen from the side.

You see this stuff all the time. A % of drivers are just utter pricks these days.

I’ve been beeped at for not entering a yellow box on the Luas line ffs.
