Explanation
A flashing red light at an intersection has the same meaning as a STOP sign. The correct response is to come to a complete stop, similar to the requirement at a STOP sign. Once stopped, look both ways, ensure the intersection is clear of oncoming traffic or pedestrians, and proceed only when it is safe to do so.
