Yellow doesn't meant "slow", it means "stop if you still reasonably can, otherwise go"
Sure, a lot of drivers interpret that as "go fast before it turns red". But "slow"? That doesn't make any sense

-GREEN: GO
-YELLOW: GO faster, but immediately hit the brakes hard as you can, if you get a feeling you don't make it.
-RED: Take a nap. After it turns green, be so late that only few cars manage to leave.

In Morocco most people stop at red but then they’ll drive down the wrong side of the road to jump the queue and put themselves so far over the line they can’t even see when the lights change.

A popular manoeuvre in South East Asia.

1 0 ReplyWhat part of Florida are you in?? Yeah, we speed up for the yellow, but I've seen someone run a red like that here at most maybe once every 5 years.
1 0 ReplySouth Florida. I’d say about three people run every red right after it changes from yellow. Zero enforcement. I’ve seen people do it in front of cops. Since Covid it seems like nobody cares.
