CARPENTIER S c c r c t a r y of S t a t e Quite often, motorists inquire about regulations regarding flashing red and yellow traffic signals. When a driver approaching an Intersection or a crosswalk between Intersections is faced by a blinking or flashing red light the motorist .must come to a complete stop and yield the right-of-way to pedestrians. (Sec. 33, Uniform Act Regulating TrafiiV) When approaching a flashing yellow light the motorist must reduce to a low speed anLdITr then cross the intersection timL A FLASHING RED LIGHT ' /MEANS STOP/ with caution, yielding the right-ofway to pedestrians. (Sec. 33, Uniform Act Regulating Traffic.) In the case of a flashing red light the motorist must stop his vehicle before entering the nearest cross walk, or at the point indicated by a clearly visible line or marking on the pavement. In the event there is no marking, the stop must be made even with the traffic signal, or at a point nearest the intersection roadway where there is a clear view of approaching traffic. The motorist approaching a flashing yellow light at an intersection which has a flashing red light for traffic traveling in a perpendicular direction should be particularly cautious at night as some motorists --in violation of the law--merely reduce their speed when facing these lig^tB and proceed to "jump" the light without making a complete 8 top.
