Greetings laban!

There are lots of great links on the Massachusetts government and
related sites about traffic law and information relating specifically
to traffic signals that should be able to answer your question. 
Specifically these three links in relation to each other (I list all
links at the end of the answer also):

http://mass.gov/rmv/dmanual/102004/chapter4.pdf

http://www.mass.gov/courts/courtsandjudges/courts/districtcourt/cmviassess.pdf

http://www.mass.gov/legis/laws/mgl/89-9.htm


Some good alternate search terms would be "red signal" and "traffic
signal".  Below, I have listed a bunch of links that are related to
the information you are looking for.  Much of it is related directly. 
There are also links to Massachusetts general law.  I have provided
both table of contents and search pages.

Please let me know if I can clarify any of this information for you.

Thanks for the interesting question!
