Sometimes yeild, Slow down or speed up depending on conditions. If there is a Camera at the Light a person might want to stop a bit sooner...

I live in Arizoan, the #1 state in the nation for red light deaths.... If i am not sure I can make it through, I stop. The key is to evaluate the options before speeding up, not after.

generally ur meant to prepare to stop by slowing down, but reality: that will result in u recieving copious amounts of abuse from other drivers for being a pain in the a*s and u will have to sit at the red light with everyone behind you giving you the finger, so do as most (that are not painful drivers) put ur foot down and allow the traffic to flow through.

As I was taught by a friend's brother, yellow does not mean slow down, it means speed up!
I speed up to go through it and kiss my fingers and put them to the roof of the car, praying a cop didn't see me do it!

Usually speed up to make the light!

Proceed with caution depending on how long the light has been yellow.

depends on the current traffic situation and how far away i'm away from the intersection when it goes yellow. i'll stop if i know i wont be able to safely make it, but i'll chance it and go if i think i can pull it off

If I'm very close to the line, I proceed with caution as long as I have time to make it through. Otherwise, I slow down & stop.
