haha well QUICK! your driving and up ahead is a yellow light. Do you slow down, or do you speed up?
I'm not asking WHAT TO DO im asking what YOU would do at a yellow light . : )

Im asking this because I noticed between my parents that one would try to beat the yellow light so she wouldn't get stuck at the red. And the other would slow down and wait.

my mom would be like... 'oh jesus. oh jesus, wait for me'. in hmong. biggrin.gif

or like when my in law got caught for passing a yellow-red light....

in broken english..

'oh. lilo yillo. lilo yello.'
meaning, the light was still a little yellow.

i would stop.
better safe than sorry.
and some people cross the red light before it turns green,
so they can hit you if you try to make it too fast.

hmmm to me.. depends on how far i still am from the yellow light...
if i'm really far and don't think i'll make it, i'll slow down..
if i think i can make it (and safely) i'll speed up..

if I'm at a distance I can speed up and pass, I go. but usually I end up slowing down cus I don't like speeding up all of a sudden and stuff.

depends on how far away i am when it turned amber. & depends on which country i currently am in. different countries have different lengths of time during which the light stays amber.

the first question to ask is: how far are you and what's your speed?

if you're quite close, you have to pick up speed and go past the traffic light even if it turns red right when you're nearing it because braking suddenly will cause the person behind you to well... drive right into you *flinch* and that's not soo good ><!!

if you're quite far and relatively slowwww... I suggest the brakes ^0^!!

my definition: prepare for stopping AND prepare to move ^^

To me, it means, "HURRY THE john tesh UP!!!"
Actually it depends on my speed, if I can break without the after-shook (sorry, don't know what it's called), I'll stop. If I know I can't stop without it, I'll keep going. Usually, I've noticed, I go.

I'm a play-it-safe kinda person. I usually slow down and wait. but it seriously depends on how far I am from the stoplight. If I'm really close to it, then I'd obviously go

If I'm close, I'll just speed up. If I'm far away and expect it, then yeah I'll slow down.

I just hate it when the lights just green and there's others cars waiting to go in the other directions and you're waiting for your light to turn yellow but it never happens and then it happens right when you have enough space to slow down but you don't...rule of thumb...if you're already past the line when it's still yellow and then it turns red...then you're technically clear haha.

If I'm close, usually I just speed up. Unless something's in the way (pedestrian crossing already) then I'd slow down.

well for me it depends on how fast i'm already going. i calculate how far away i am from the light and then decide to beat it or not. but ever since i got my ticket from one of those cameras running the red light, i try to slow down now. lol but i dont always go through with it and thank buddha that the cameras aren't there to take a pic of my car.

it depends on the distance u are from the lights when u saw the yellow light. if i'm not too far i'll speed up, and if i'm still quite far, i'll slow down... it's how u judge and gauge ur distance as well...
