WHICH IS EASIER TO SPOT?

Find out for yourself if a steady yellow arrow is sufficient to clear a flashing yellow arrow.

The page simulates a nighttime event where you are stopped at a signal displaying a flashing yellow arrow, complete with lights simulating moving traffic. A driver at a flashing yellow must watch for gaps in oncoming traffic in addition to observing the signal.

Find out for yourself whether a yellow arrow or a circular yellow is a better clearance indication for a flashing yellow arrow. Watch the traffic, and see if you can tell when the signal changes:
