I'm pretty sure that our laws state to proceed with caution if not safe to stop
on a yellow, and to wait out a red light until it is green.  Flashing red is
another matter though <G>

Construction and tow vehicles here have yellow flashing lights, including road
maintenance crews.  Police have both blue and red, while Ambulance and Fire
Trucks have simply red
