What does a steady (non-flashing) yellow traffic light for vehicles require?
Signage: Traffic lights
Explanation
A **non-flashing yellow light** on a traffic light indicates that drivers must stop under the same conditions as if it were a **steady red light**. This means that passage is not allowed and the vehicle must be stopped before the stop line or pedestrian crossing, if there are any.
- The non-flashing yellow light on a traffic light is a warning signal indicating that the light will soon change to red. Therefore, drivers should prepare to stop safely.
- It should not be confused with the flashing yellow light, which generally indicates caution and allows passage if it is safe to do so. In this case, the non-flashing yellow light has a similar meaning to the red light, which is to stop.
Therefore, the correct answer is that the non-flashing yellow light requires stopping as if it were a steady red light.
