Left on red OK?

In Texas as well as 36 other states it is ok to turn left on red under the following circumstances.

I don't see many people doing it here but wish they would.

Sec.　544.007.　　TRAFFIC-CONTROL SIGNALS IN GENERAL.　
(d)　　An operator of a vehicle facing only a steady red signal shall stop at a clearly marked stop line. In the absence of a stop line, the operator shall stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection. A vehicle that is not turning shall remain standing until an indication to proceed is shown. After stopping, standing until the intersection may be entered safely, and yielding right-of-way to pedestrians lawfully in an adjacent crosswalk and other traffic lawfully using the intersection, the operator may:
(1)　　turn right; or
(2)　　turn left, if the intersecting streets are both one-way streets and a left turn is permissible.
