its legal because you already passed it
Another View: It depends on the situation. If your car was in the interesection, stopped, awaiting a break in oncoming traffic in order to turn left, and the light turned red, you must clear the intersection, so you would be doing so lawfully.
HOWEVER - if you were simply driving straight through the intersection and entered the interesection against an amber light which then truned red when you were in the intersection, you can be charged.

Should I get a ticket for being in a intersection because I went on a left yellow arrow and the light turned red before I was able to clear the intersection because of traffic?
General rules of the road state that you must clear the intersection by the time the red light illuminates; if there was traffic preventing you from clearing the intersection before you entered it on a yellow light then you should not have entered the intersection because of impediments to traffic.

What the traffic rules regarding amber traffic lights?
By "amber" I assume you mean yellow. A yellow traffic light indicates that your "right of way" is ending within the next couple seconds. When the light turns yellow you shouldn't enter the intersection if you haven't already, unless you've reached "The point of no return". It's not illegal to go through the intersection while the traffic light is yellow, but if you can stop you should, if you can't stop then go through the intersection (determined by your own judgement). A yellow light is basically a warning of a red light coming, where it is illegal to proceed through the intersection. The duration of a yellow light depends on the road the traffic light is governing. For a side road the traffic light may only show a yellow for around 3 seconds, for a major road such as a state road or US Highway, the traffic light may show a yellow for 4-6 seconds. These timings all depend on the road that the traffic light is governing and what the speed limit is for that road.

What should you do when the light turns red and you are in the middle of an intersection about to turn left?
If you're in the intersection and it is green then turns to yellow/red, it is fine to go. Entering the intersection after it is already yellow is unlawful driving. GA
