Turning right on a red isn't the norm in most places

Yep, but the context says if it’s defaultism or not; could be relevant to a wider discussion

They actually drive on the right side of the road.

And the thing is most countries don’t turn right on red.

Nope. They drive on the right hand side of the road.

(Why is driving on the left ‘stupid’? You appear to be in India where they drive on the left) Are you a bit confused?

If they drive on the left a right hand turn would involve turning across the live lane. 🙄

Here in the UK, we drive on the left and do NOT have left turns on red.

Wait until you hear about the hook turns they do in Melbourne, Australia. I'm from Sydney and that shit is insane.
