At an intersection, the signal for your direction shows a flashing red light. The signal for the cross street shows a flashing yellow light. What should you do?
Two signal details compare the directions: flashing red faces A and flashing yellow faces the cross street. Broken outlines and written labels identify both flashing indications.
Correct answer: Stop fully, yield to cross traffic and pedestrians, and go when it is safe
Why
Intersection flashers can add to or take the place of STOP signs. Drivers who face a flashing yellow light may go through with caution, so they usually do not stop for you. When a traffic signal is not needed or is out of order, it may flash red or yellow; treat it the same as these flashers. Stop at the stop line or crosswalk, or before the intersection if there is none.
