Does anyone know if this applys to Indiana? I frequently do this, but wasn't sure if it was actually legal.

(3) Steady red indication means the following:

(ii) Make a left turn if turning from the left lane of a one-way street into another one-way street with the flow of traffic.

Same in VA - but it sure feels funny to actually do it.

It is the same here in Michigan. All of downtown for me has one ways so I do it about once a week or so. I don't know about Indiana but so far it seems like most states will allow you to do it.

In NY its legal (and encouraged) to make a left hand turn on red only if it is a busy interstate road that is being turned on to, and only if the traffic is running in the opposite direction that you will be traveling in after completion of the turn.
Yes, Im just kidding.
