When a traffic light displays a stable (not flashing) yellow light:
- It indicates that the flashing yellow light is about to appear. You should drive faster and clear the intersection immediately.
- It indicates that the flashing green light is about to appear. You should drive faster and clear the intersection immediately.
- Correct answer: It indicates that the red light is about to appear. You should prepare to stop or clear the intersection immediately.
- It indicates that the stable (not flashing) green light is about to appear and you would be able to continue driving.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: It indicates that the red light is about to appear. You should prepare to stop or clear the intersection immediately.
A stable yellow light on its own appears before the red, so it warns that the red light is about to come on. Prepare to stop. If you have already entered the intersection, clear it immediately. Do not drive faster to get through before the red light comes on.
