You got 17 out of 20
Wow! You've got quite the memory.

Could you turn right on red in every state before 1978? was the question. I answered Yes. I was told that I was Incorrect!

Incorrect was not correct because you could have, but it wasn't legal until 1978!
The question did not ask if it was legal or even say anything about driving. You have always been able to turn right on red even if you were only walking or riding a bike etc.
Because of this I claimed another point due to this ambiguous question.
