You approach an intersection where a single signal light is flashing yellow for your direction. What does it require?
A approaches an intersection with one suspended yellow signal lamp. A dashed ring around the illuminated lamp depicts flashing; no stop or go action is selected.
Correct answer: Slow down, watch for cross traffic and pedestrians, and go through with care.
Why
A flashing yellow signal warns of danger at that place, so look left and right and be ready to stop if a vehicle or pedestrian appears. You must still yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk and to vehicles already in the intersection. A steady yellow is different: it tells you to stop before the intersection unless you are too close to stop safely.
