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.


Can you drive through when the traffic light is yellow?

Traffic laws vary of course. In places where there is a solid yellow light, indicating that it will soon be red meaning stop, generally you can enter the intersection while it is yellow. The core idea is, "stop if safe to do so." If you could have stopped, but instead accelerate to make it through while still yellow, one might argue that you violated the idea, and in some areas this is against the law. Also, in some areas (such as Oregon) where you should stop at yellow unless it's unsafe, you are expected to drive through the intersection "cautiously."

If you enter a traffic light as it turns yellow is this considered running a red light?

No, entering a traffic light as it turns yellow is not considered running a red light. A yellow light indicates that the signal is about to change to red, and drivers are expected to stop if they can do so safely. Running a red light occurs when a driver enters an intersection after the light has turned red.
