Here is what you should do if the traffics lights are affected;
If the traffic signal is totally dark, all drivers are to stop at the intersection and treat it like a four way stop. Each motorist taking his or her turn will help traffic flow smoothly. If the signal is in flashing mode, drivers having a flashing red light are to stop and yield to other drivers before proceeding through the intersection. Drivers having a flashing yellow light are to proceed with caution.
If police or other authorized persons are directing traffic or there are portable signs in place then follow their direction.
The most important things to remember are; drive defensive and be extra careful paying close attention to what other drivers are doing at the intersection. Being patient and driving with care will help everyone get home safely.
