Unusual Intersections II

Two more types of intersections that I never figured out in the US and Canada were flashing green traffic lights, and flashing amber lights.

Having no idea of their significance, I had to quickly decide how to handle these junctions. My approach was to be ultra-cautious and to assume that the flashing indicated danger, and so I sped up and zoomed through as fast as possible in order to leave the area a toute vitesse. Luckily there was no cross-traffic at the time, and I survived unscathed, but had anyone on a side street taken my approach, I would have ended up somewhat scathed.
