How should you respond to a flashing red traffic signal?
The top red lamp of a three-lamp signal is lit. A broken white ring and a caption identify the flashing state.
Correct answer: Stop fully, then follow STOP-sign right-of-way rules.
Why
A flashing red signal requires a complete stop and a safe yield before entering. Apply the stop-sign right-of-way rules after the stop. Do not treat the flashing red as a green light merely because another driver has begun to move.
