Red conveys a sense of urgency, more than other colors do, probably because if its association with blood. Emergencies often involve bleeding. So, while a stop signal isn't an emergency, failure to stop might well result in an emergency.
Red is commonly used as a stopping signal because it is a highly visible and attention-grabbing color. It has been ingrained in many cultures to associate red with danger or caution, making it an effective choice for signaling the need to pause or stop. Additionally, red is easy to distinguish from other colors, even in low light conditions, further enhancing its effectiveness as a signal for stopping.
You are being trained through classical conditioning to associate the red light with stopping (unconditioned response) and the green light with going (unconditioned response). This concept is known as associative learning, where a conditioned stimulus (red or green light) becomes associated with a specific response (stop or go).
When you learn that red means stop and green means go, it involves classical conditioning with the red and green lights serving as stimuli. This concept pairs a specific stimulus (the color of the light) with a particular response (stopping or going) to create an association in your mind over time.
In the natural world, red has almost always represents danger. Although many creatures are 'colourblind' red is still recognised by most as a danger signal and leave it alsone. From this natural order, humans have used red as a danger sign for centuries. The red hand warning symbol through to red lights and stop signs all tell us of danger. There are some exceptions though; the bee, hummingbird and other pollen/nectar gatherers will be attracted to red flowers. Parrots and other berry eaters will be attracted to red berries. This part of the natural world has been emulated by humans to attract each other. Red lipstick, red dresses, red cars, red ties and so on.
Flying a flag upside down is a signal of distress or danger. It is used as a universal sign of an emergency to seek help or attention.
Cause signal words include "because," "since," "due to," "as a result of," while effect signal words include "therefore," "consequently," "thus," and "so." These signal words help identify relationships between events, indicating either the reason for something happening (cause) or the outcome/result of an action (effect).
Yes
After stopping, you may turn right, unless prohibited by some other sign or signal.
There are politically troubled parts of the world, such as Iraq, where potentially anybody might become the target of a suicide attack at any time. In other parts of the world, people have not been attacked while stopping for a red traffic signal. In general, it is safe to stop for red lights, and even recommended.
