Yellow lights indicate that drivers should slow down or otherwise use caution.
The common yellow light (red-yellow-green intersection signals) will light for a few seconds between green (go) and red (stop) to indicate that drivers should be prepared to give the right-of-way. In most cases, this means to slow and stop for the red light, unless the vehicle is already entering the intersection and/or cannot stop before entering. Drivers are responsible for leaving the intersection before the red light comes on.
Flashing yellow lights are used to mark hazards (construction, detours, bumps, uneven road surfaces, other crossings, and intersections without signal regulation). Unlike flashing red lights, they do not mean stop.
It's an indication that the light is about to turn red. If you able to stop within reason while the light is yellow, you're expected to.

If a car hits a pedestrian crossing where there is a crosswalk sign who is responsible in California?
Crosswalks A crosswalk is that part of the pavement where the sidewalk lines would extend across the street and it is set aside for pedestrian traffic. Every intersection has a pedestrian crosswalk whether or not there are painted lines on the street. Most crosswalks are at corners but they can also be in the middle of the block. Before turning a corner, watch for people about to cross the street. Pedestrians have the right of way in crosswalks. Crosswalks are often marked with white lines. Yellow crosswalk lines may be painted at school crossings. Most often, crosswalks in residential areas are not marked. Some crosswalks have flashing lights to warn you that pedestrians may be crossing. Look for pedestrians and be prepared to stop, whether or not the lights are flashing.
