Explanation
A steady yellow light shown on a traffic signal means that the light is about to turn red. Drivers may proceed only if they have already entered the intersection, or if they cannot safely stop before entering the intersection and are sure that they will have freed it once the light turns red. When you are approaching the yellow traffic light from a distance, slow down and safely come to a stop.
