What signal means you may proceed, but only if the path is clear?

Steady green means you may proceed through the intersection, but only if the way is clear. It gives you the right of way, but you still must scan for hazards—oncoming traffic, pedestrians in or near the crosswalk, and vehicles that may be turning into your path. If you can’t be sure the intersection is clear, wait until it is, even though the light is green. Flashing yellow signals you to proceed with extra caution and slow down. Steady yellow tells you to slow down and prepare to stop if you can do so safely. Red means you must stop and wait until the signal changes.
