I agree with Terry. I've seen few states that don't allow people to enter the
intersection on a yellow light. In those areas; they may as well just take
out the yellow and have only green & red. Yellow lights are there so people
know to decide whether they have time to continue through OR to stop before
the light goes red. Otherwise.. are people all expected to lock up thier
brakes when they see the light go yellow.. Or be ready to stop at a green
light so if it goes yellow.. there's time to stop and wait for the red light.
