IT DEPENDS WHAT THE CIRCUMSTANCES ARE, LIKE MAYBE UMM, I DONT KNOW, WHERE YOU ARE!?
GEEZ, LEARN TO SPELL TRAFFIC!
Oh, I'm really sorry... i suffer from imense rage blackouts.
Generally, traffic lights take about 5-10 seconds to change to a different color. This timing can vary depending on the intersection and the traffic light's programming.
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.
It takes 2-3 minutes for a traffic light to change from green to red! (P.S I have counted the seconds myself!)

You don't have to wait any amount of time when the light turns green, when the light turns green that means the intersection is safe for you to proceed.
The duration for a traffic light to transition from orange to red can vary based on local traffic regulations and specific traffic light systems. Typically, the orange light lasts for about 3 to 5 seconds before changing to red. This timing is designed to alert drivers to prepare to stop, ensuring safety at intersections. Always check local traffic laws for precise timings in your area.
Light seconds is a distance not a time.
A typical red light at an intersection lasts around 30 seconds. However, this time can vary based on factors such as traffic patterns and the specific design of the intersection.
In Canada, traffic light durations can vary by municipality, but generally, the sequence includes green, yellow, and red lights. The green light typically lasts from 30 to 60 seconds, followed by a yellow light for about 3 to 5 seconds to warn drivers before the light turns red. The red light usually remains on for a similar duration as the green light, allowing for safe pedestrian crossing and traffic flow changes. Some intersections may also have variations to accommodate factors such as traffic volume and time of day.
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.
The average distance from the Earth to the Moon is about 1.28 light-seconds. This means it takes light about 1.28 seconds to travel from the Earth to the Moon.
