|
|
Apropo absolutely nothing at all......
I was wondering, is it illegal to go when the lights change from red to red/amber? I can't find any info that definitively explains whether it is or not. Anyone know for sure? ____________________ A Guide To Powerbands |

Red means stop.
Amber means stop.
Red and amber means stop.
Flashing amber means proceed with caution only if the crossing is clear.
Green means go.
Red and green means the lights are broken. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

I don’t know about the legality (although given a blue light I’d nick ‘em all) but I can think of a few local traffic-light junctions where the switching interval is so short that going on amber is likely to get you wiped out by someone doing the same from the other direction. On the bike I’ll filter up to the front-but-one so the first car takes that heat, or shields me. (Pass him moments later .) |

Some places I have driven abroard they don't have amber, just red and green which can get very dicey if you decide to try your luck crossing when they are changing. Mind you, in a lot of places they seem to be advisory anyway, no one takes that much notice of them. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

Don't be an amber gambler!
It's a bad habit to get into when you might get caught by the occasional traffic camera. Switch to a bicycle then you don't have to worry about any of the colours ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |
