Question 186 in the bank

How would you conduct yourself when approaching an intersection with a yellow flashing traffic light?

Two three-light traffic signals: on the left all circles are white; on the right the middle circle is yellow, the others white. Meaning: Slow down and even stop if necessary - according to the surrounding traffic.
  1. Correct answer: Slow down and even stop if necessary - according to the surrounding traffic.
  2. In any case – stop before the pedestrian crossing.
  3. Speed up before the light turns red.
  4. Slow down and give right-of-way to vehicles coming from your left only.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Slow down and even stop if necessary - according to the surrounding traffic.

A flashing yellow light means you must drive with extra care. Slow down, and stop if the traffic around you requires it. You are not required to stop in every case, and you should not speed up to get through quickly, because approaching the intersection should be done carefully and according to what is happening around you.
