6. Yeah, there is no law against this where I live.

Here is what the handbook says....but this is not in the law.

"Faced with a red light, a driver has to stop behind the crosswalk line and can't enter the intersection. But if it is not a red-light violation "unless the front tires of a vehicle cross the stop line after the signal is red.""

So, as long as you enter the intersection when the light was green, you can keep going even if the light later turns while you are in the intersection. Just edit to add yeah, if there is a sign that takes precedent.

I discovered a whole giant controversy about this on a Nashville website. I had no idea this is controversial.
