I think you have a certain influx population to thank for that.

There are signs here that read, "left turn yields on green." Um... duh!?

That one makes some sense. A green arrow is an indication that your
right-of-way is clear. A green does not. Would you rather it said "left turn
yields on red"? ...also legal in some instances, BTW.

What's next, "Don't drive though intersection while light is red?"

That's what the camera thingy is for.
