As you approach an intersection where the traffic light has turned yellow, you’re faced with a decision: either stop as the light transitions to red or accelerate to pass through before it changes.

Running a yellow light can also constitute negligence in some cases.For example, if a driver has enough time to stop before entering the intersection but chooses not to and causes a crash.
