Seeing as how Texas drivers do not respect red lights any other time, yes.
But according to the law, no. You can NEVER turn left on red, even from a one-way street onto another one-way street.
Incorrect. In Texas (as in 36 other US states) a driver may turn left on red at 2 intesecting one-way streets. Fom the official Texas Driver Manual, Chapter 5, page 29:
CHAPTER 5
SIGNALS, SIGNS, AND MARKERS
TRAFFIC SIGNALS
STEADY RED LIGHT
Stop before entering the crosswalk or intersection. You may turn right unless
prohibited by law. You may also turn left if both streets are one way unless
prohibited by law. You must yield to all pedestrians and other traffic lawfully
using the intersection.
Texas Transportation code:
TRANSPORTATION CODE CHAPTER 544. TRAFFIC SIGNS, SIGNALS, AND MARKINGS
TRANSPORTATION CODE
TITLE 7. VEHICLES AND TRAFFIC
SUBTITLE C. RULES OF THE ROAD
CHAPTER 544. TRAFFIC SIGNS, SIGNALS, AND MARKINGS
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.
Unfortunately, most Texans (or at least most San Antonians - even the cops) are ignorant of this law.

Is it legal to turn right on red from second right turn lane in NC?
Yes, it is perfectly legal.
In New York State if there's not a no turn on red sign can you make a right on red from the second right turn lane?
Not unless that lane is specifically marked or signalled as such. Normally you may only turn right on red from the lane closest to the right curb.
When you turn right onto a multi lane road which lane do you turn in to?
When you are in the far right lane, your turn should put you in the far right lane. Then, when safe, you can merge into the left lane to pass. This is for a right turn from a 2 or 4 lane onto a 2-or higher lane road.
Can you turn right on red from second right turn lane?
It depends on the state in which you live.In Indiana, it is legal, provided that you do not change lanes while you are turning.And right next door, in Ohio, it is not. Curb lane only.

Yes, as long as there isn't another lane for turning right. You can turn right when you are not allowed to turn left.
Do you use a parking lane to initiate a right turn?
No, you do not initiate a right turn from a parking lane. Parking lanes are not intended to be used as traffic lanes. To initiate a right turn, you should be in the farthest right traffic lane.

You should always only turn from the lane closest to the direction you wish to turn. For example you will turn only from the far left lane if you are turning to the left. If you wish to turn right then you will have to do this from the far right lane only.
Suppose you are driving on a four lane highway from which lane should you turn Into which lane should you turn?
Always turn in to the lane closest to you (e.g. making a right turn onto a highway you should turn into the right lane).Turning from the highway depends upon which you are going, if left turns are premitted (some require left turns from the right lane only) So you must check the rules for that particular road. Unless there are other vehicles trying to come on to the intersection then you should just simply move to the left.
Which lane do you turn into on a left hand turn at a set of lights?
Unless the markings on the road clearly indicate otherwise - on a right turn you turn into the right lane; likewise, on a left turn you turn into the left lane. You always turn into the nearest lane whether it is a right or left turn.
