NYC has no right on red. After getting used to I loved it. Now I live in another city with right on red and a fair amount of bike and pedestrian traffic.

Turning right on red means looking out for cars, people, bikes and having the pressure of a car behind you - perhaps honking because it wants you to go.

Driving in (the busiest parts of) NYC is an outlier experience that doesn't resemble much else.

(I'm curious what other city you're talking about.)

Don't let assholes stress you. The honk shouldn't be used for that, plus you can take as much time as you need to make sure you're driving safely.
