No, you must make a complete stop. I see many people every day treat it as a
yield.

When you reread that statement, does it actually make sense to you?

In my non native version of English it still does :-). I was very tired
too when I wrote it and have noted that quality of English language
generated by my brain drops rapidly then ... Does this come thru?

Yeah, much better. Some of native-English speakers don't do well until
after the 2nd cup of coffee. Alas, some English-speaking folks haven't
a clue about their own language.

My guess was you meant to say that, ahem, "someone" got a traffic
violation ticket through the [snail] mail because they were caught on
camera. They are propagating. Cameras are showing up lots of places
and are growing in number. One guy got nabbed for speeding by a
radar-activated camera that is intended to take a picture of their rear
license plate. To add insult to injury then he also got nailed for
reckless driving since he was photographed reaching over the back seat
trying to get to something on the rear floor.

To know whether a stop was required for a permitted right-turn-on-red
requires knowing where the event took place. Someone from that area
could then answer your question.

No you must stop first. Also depending on where you are a right turn on a red is not allowed period.

Here in Ontario Canada it is legal AFTER you do a complete stop and
nothing is coming, on the other hand, not legal in Quebec I like the
yield-stopsign combo that they are puting up now thou

It is illegal to go through a red light without stopping. Pretty simple
answer - seems obvious.

Yes you can make a right turn on red unless there is a sign indicating
otherwise. But you have to stop first. It's a red light. Duh!!

You can also make a left turn on red IF you're on a one way street, AND
you're turning onto a one way street going from right to left.

Maybe you should revisit driver's ed.
