Explanation
The reason you can make a left turn on a red light only from a one-way street onto another one-way street, unless signs prohibit it, is that it is generally safer than turning on a red light across multiple lanes of traffic. When turning onto a one-way street, there is no opposing traffic coming from the opposite direction that you need to worry about.
