What does a Flashing Red Light Mean?

Here are the key points to remember when dealing with a flashing red light:

– Treat it as an intersection with four stop signs.
– Legally, flashing red lights are equivalent to stop signs.
– Come to a complete stop and look out for any vehicles or oncoming traffic.
– Proceed only when it is safe to do so while keeping in mind the right of way rules.
– Flashing red lights may be displayed during the early hours or when there is less traffic on the road.
– Railway crossings also use flashing red lights as signals.
