I know exactly where this is in Harrison. Its actually very purposeful, but perhaps unclear and rarely adhered to. The street OP is on is Harrison Ave.... the street emptying in is 1st street. Tons of trucks come into and out of 1st street from the few remaining warehouses in the area. Lots of them have to make that left towards Newark.

People in that right lane where the picture is taken from usually pull up all the way to the corner on a red light instead of that line where the sign is. It causes issues when those 18 wheelers turning out of 1st street can't make that left turn because a car has rolled up to the corner to make that right on red.

I see that issue all the time. I am always just amused by this sign because it's saying what the law in place already says. A right turn on red is legal after a stop at every intersection in the state, unless prohibited by a sign. So with the sign there or without it, the rules are the same at that intersection.
