Not at all illegal.Â* The whole point of amber lights is as a warning
that the lights are about to change and if it is safer to drive on
than attempt to stop then do so.

I can't believe that you said that.



Amber means stop if you are able to.

Wrong.

Amber means "stop, if that is the safer course of action".

What does it say?

Try to make your point for yourself. I have no intention of reading a
document which may or may not say what you may or may not be trying to say.

What do the traffic light colours mean?
A red traffic light means stop at or behind the white line (or where
otherwise indicated). The white line is positioned so that pedestrians
have room to cross in front of the waiting vehicles without becoming an
obstacle to traffic travelling across the junction. The only time you
can go through a red light is if a police officer directs you to do so.
A red and amber light together still means stop – don’t pass through it
until green shows

*An amber light means stop if you are able to. The amber light usually
stays on for between 4-6 seconds to give all vehicles enough time to
stop safely*

A flashing amber light is shown at a pedestrian crossing. It means you
can go if it’s safe to do so (i.e. there are no pedestrians still crossing)

A green light means go if it is safe to do so (i.e. there are not
pedestrians crossing) and there is space for your vehicle on the other
side of the junction.
If the lights are out, proceed with caution as nobody has the right-of-way.
