what are you supposed to do at an orange light?
3 comments

Swiss traffic lights sometimes change over to a blinking orange schedule at night, where the junction is uncontrolled and you treat it as yield or sometimes a stop instead.
The middle light in a traffic light is called yellow in the US, and orange in (some parts of?) Europe.
In Boston you speed up so you don't get stuck at the imminent red light.
If we're responding to the question with answers that have nothing to do with Zürich, like parent comment asked for, then in New Delhi you just ignore the traffic lights.
