I remember the rulebook says you are allowed to enter the intersection and finish your turn after the light turns red. Based on responses I think having some lessons in the city would be helpful. You may not be aware of nuances like what happens if I turn left and there is an island that separates the two directions in the middle of the road? You're supposed to turn into the island and wait until the cross street's light turns green. Yes this means on some roads like Park Avenue, pretty much only 2 or 3 cars ever get to turn left so try to avoid that if you can.
