In Norwegian traffic signs and road markings (Skiltforskriften), what does a flashing yellow / amber traffic signal light indicate at an intersection?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. Signal out of order; proceed with extra caution

  1. Step 1: A flashing amber light signals that the lights are not controlling priority; drivers must follow posted priority signs (e.g. yield/stop) or the default right-hand priority rule (høyreregelen). Answer: Signal out of order; proceed with extra caution. Why not the others: the alternative options do not correctly describe the statutory meaning under the Norwegian Sign Regulations (Skiltforskriften).
