A flashing yellow light means:

  1. Yield to all cross traffic

  2. Stop and proceed when safe

  3. Slow down but proceed with caution

  4. Speed up to get through the intersection faster

The correct answer is: Slow down but proceed with caution

A flashing yellow light means drivers should slow down and proceed with caution. Option A is incorrect because drivers only need to yield to cross traffic when facing a steady red light at an intersection. Option B is incorrect because drivers do not need to come to a complete stop at a flashing yellow light. Option D is incorrect because drivers should not speed up in response to a flashing yellow light, as this may increase the risk of a collision.
