    Here driver’s ed taught

    green = go red = stop Yellow = proceed with caution

    Not that it’s the rule I follow, but that’s what gets drilled into kids heads.

    The advent of red light cameras turned yellow into “Can I safely stop without being plowed by a jacked up SUV/Pickup?”

      that’s what gets drilled into kids heads.

      There is an anecdote about my oldest brother. He said to another kid “green is go, red is stop and yellow is go very fast”. Guess they learn from what we do, not what we tell them to do.

      Ah yes let’s teach new drivers that green light means go without any nuance about red light running.
