What does a yellow arrow signal indicate?

  1. Speed up to clear the intersection

  2. Signal is about to change

  3. Stop immediately

  4. Turn with caution

The correct answer is: Signal is about to change

A yellow arrow signal indicates that the signal is about to change. It serves as a warning to drivers that the direction of travel permitted by the arrow is going to end soon. This warning allows drivers to prepare to stop or yield if necessary. This is an important signal to pay attention to, as it helps in preventing accidents and ensuring smooth traffic flow. Option A, speeding up to clear the intersection, is unsafe and not recommended as it can lead to accidents. Option C, stopping immediately, is not the correct interpretation of a yellow arrow signal, as it indicates an upcoming signal change rather than an immediate stop. Option D, turning with caution, is partially correct, but the primary purpose of the yellow arrow signal is to indicate an upcoming signal change rather than emphasizing caution specifically for making turns.
