Yes, stop as for a steady red light. The exception is when, as it lights up, you are so close to the stopping point that you cannot stop before the signal with sufficient safety. Do not accelerate to try to get through. Flashing amber requires caution and giving way when necessary; it does not exempt you from other signs requiring a stop.
