At intersections where turning on red is prohibited, please keep your car out of the crosswalk!

I took a walk with my wife to lunch in the U District. We crossed at least two streets where a vehicle indicating a right turn was blocking most of the crosswalk, despite a “no turn on red” sign clearly posted at the intersection. Please don’t do this! At these intersections there’s zero good reason to pass the stop line before the light turns green. Instead pause and enjoy a moment of tranquility while there’s nothing to do but patiently wait for the light to cycle.
