A yellow arrow traffic light means that you should yield in the direction you are going. These are often in place when you are turning left.
Amber (or red) in a traffic light sequence means "stop," put the brakes on! Green means "go;" and yellow signifies that the traffic light is about to turn red (or amber), so you should start to slow down and prepare to stop.
A yellow traffic light means to slow down or stop completely. When the light is yellow it is about to change to red in a few seconds. Contrary to popular belief by many drivers yellow does not mean speed up.

The yellow *traffic* light means to slow down and get ready to stop because it is about to turn to the red light.

A yellow arrow traffic light means that you should yield in the direction you are going. These are often in place when you are turning left.
It means that you may make the indicated turn on a permissive basis, after yielding to conflicting vehicles and pedestrians. This is usually the same as turning on the circular green, but the flashing yellow arrow can be displayed at times when the straight ahead movement can not be given a green light. The purpose is to eliminate a dangerous condition called yellow trap. It occurs when the circular green is used to allow permissive turns, and one circular green ends sooner than the oncoming circular green. The left turning driver receiving the earlier yellow light tries to turn across traffic that still has a green light, causing an accident. The flashing yellow arrow can keep flashing until the oncoming green gets a yellow, allowing the driver to turn safely.
A green traffic light means you may go, but only if safe to do so. If there is other traffic or pedestrians in the way, you may NOT go until safe, even if you "have the green light." Even if the other traffic or pedestrians are violating the law, you cannot go until it is safe.
Im not sure about yellow but the green means your indicating.
