Is it a violation to cross the stop line when the yellow light is on?
1 Answers
Crossing the stop line when the yellow light is on is considered a violation. Below are the specific rules for motor vehicle traffic signals: Green light on: Vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians. Yellow light on: Vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed. Red light on: Vehicles are prohibited from proceeding. Intersections without non-motor vehicle traffic signals: At intersections without non-motor vehicle traffic signals or pedestrian crossing signals, non-motor vehicles and pedestrians should follow the motor vehicle traffic signals. Vehicles turning right when the red light is on may proceed provided they do not obstruct the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians.
