Amber means stop if you are able to. Able to? "An amber light means stop if you are able to. The amber light usually stays on for between 4-6 seconds to give all vehicles enough time to stop safely. A green light means go if it is safe to do so (i.e. there are not pedestrians crossing) and there is space for your vehicle on the other side of the junction."

I can't believe that you said that. Amber means stop if you are able to. Wrong. Amber means "stop, if that is the safer course of action". |
