<p>[quote user="Semper Vaporo"]</p> <p>The yellow light part of the traffic light cycle is the same as a red light... you may not enter the intersection on a yellow light. The purpose of the Yellow is only to allow the intersection to clear of left turning vehicles before the light turns green for cross traffic.</p> <p>You are not allowed to enter the intersection if you cannot proceed all the way through before the light turns yellow, <strong><em>EXCEPT</em></strong> if you must stop to make a left turn, waiting for the light to halt oncoming traffic (with the YELLOW!).</p> <p> </p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">I don't believe that is correct. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">It is legal to enter an intersection on a yellow light, and it is legal to still be in the intersection when it turns red. But it is illegal to enter the intersection on red. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">The pupose of the yellow is to give stopping time for changing from green to red. </span></span></p>
