Will running a yellow light in a car result in penalty points?
1 Answers
Running a yellow light in a car will not result in penalty points, as the yellow light serves only as a warning and does not indicate a violation. Below is relevant information about traffic lights: 1. Introduction: There are two types of traffic lights; those for motor vehicles are called vehicle lights. 2. Generalization: Typically refers to signal lights composed of red, yellow, and green (green being blue-green) colors used to direct traffic. 3. Application: When the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed. When the yellow light is flashing, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to pass; those that have not should slow down and stop before the stop line and wait. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from proceeding. Pedestrian crossing lights, typically composed of red and green (green being blue-green) colors, are used to direct pedestrian traffic—red means stop, and green means go.
