Legal basis of "right turn on red" as a traffic law

Requested from LTO by M. Gan at 07:32 PM on Nov 03, 2023.
Purpose: Research on road traffic laws
Date of Coverage: 11/03/2023 - 11/03/2023
Tracking no: #LTO-808111628639

Gan 07:32 PM, Nov 03, 2023 

Hi! I am currently doing research on road traffic laws. Given that a lot of roads have explicit signs allowing or disallowing a motor vehicle to make a right turn on a red traffic light, is there a legal basis or document that allows LGUs or any traffic body to declare that at an intersection, it is allowed to make a right turn on a red light?

Thank you!
