Regarding the red stoplight:
In Germany we have a rule that you may turn right if theres a sign permitting you to do so. In that case the traffic light is to be treated like a STOP-sign.
Functionally the same but inverted in the states, there are signs that tell you when it’s NOT allowed. Just a matter of which is more efficient, signing when it’s allowed or signing when it’s not.
hoping somebody ripped it off? Of what? A tree? Those signs are literally huge. What next you cant get through a stoplight if it has no power because it has no clear signalling?

I’d prefer the need to look for the sign instead of hoping nobody ripped it off.

Those signs are the size of an A4 paper in Germany. Stop assuming everything has the same size as stuff in the US…
you’re driving through america expecting the signs to be the size that they are in germany? That seems weird.

Why would it really matter as long as you can see that it’s obviously safe to do so?
Because more information is better than less.
