Explanation
A flashing red light has the same meaning as a stop sign. It indicates that you are approaching a dangerous part of the road and must come to a complete stop. Check in all directions to ensure the intersection is clear of vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians before proceeding when it is safe. Failing to stop is against the law and puts both you and others at risk.
