Right Turn on Red

How many pedestrians are killed by a vehicle making a right turn at a red light? I mean, that’s typically done at a pretty slow speed.

Maybe from people getting knocked over and heads hitting the pavement or (shudder) the curb? You're right that it wouldn't be 40-mph splats ... but getting taken down suddenly by a car at even 15 mph can ruin your day.
