Correct answer
Stop as for a steady amber light, with its safety exception.
Stop under the same conditions as a steady amber light: stop unless, when it comes on, you are so close that stopping safely is impossible. This is prescribed for these traffic lights in Annex I of the General Traffic Regulations. It is not unconditional permission to proceed straight or turn, and differs from an ordinary flashing amber light.
