BDifficulty 2/5

At a junction you come across a traffic light showing a flashing amber light. What should you do?

Correct answer

Use extreme caution, obey other signals and yield when required.

Use extreme caution and yield to users with priority. Flashing amber does not exempt you from other signals requiring a stop: if an applicable STOP sign is also present, you must stop. You may not cross automatically or check only vehicles approaching from ahead.
