Pasadena Police Conducting Red Light Patrol Friday
Officers will be throughout Pasadena from 6 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Friday to enforce vehicles at red lights.

"Run a red light and you will be cited," the Pasadena Police Department announced in a statement Wednesday.
Aiming to enforce and educate drivers while reducing serious injuries and fatal collisions, Pasadena Police will be patrolling throughout the city to ticket drivers running red lights.

A red light means stop at the stop line, crosswalk or before the intersection. Unless you are making a right turn, you must wait for the green light before you proceed. After making a complete stop, you may turn right on a red light if the intersection/crosswalk is clear of pedestrians and traffic. However, if the intersection is posted with a “No Right Turn on Red” sign, you must wait for a green light before any turning movement.
