Traffic signals - Oregon
Traffic Signals
Traffic signals control the right of way and provide for a smooth, orderly flow of traffic. If a signal appears dark, such as during a power failure, you should stop as if there are stop signs in all directions. When a traffic signal is out of order and flashes yellow or red, you must obey that signal as defined below.

Steady Circular Red
A steady red signal means stop and remain stopped until the signal changes. You are allowed to make the following turns on red after coming to a complete stop unless a sign or police officer states otherwise. When entering a two-way road, you may turn right. When entering a one-way road, you may turn right or left in the direction of the one-way road.
