What means the X is about to turn red?

In lane-use signal systems, the color of the X shows whether a lane is allowed, and when it’s about to change. A yellow X signals caution and that the lane status is about to switch to red. You should slow down and move out of that lane if it’s safe to do so, preparing for the red signal. A green X means the lane is currently open, and traffic may use it. A red X means the lane is closed now and must not be used. A flashing X indicates the signal is changing or in transition, not necessarily an immediate red. So a yellow X is the one that means the lane is about to turn red.
