Failure to stop prior to stop line for a circular yellow signal or yellow arrow, when safe to do so

This is going to get people killed. Most drivers are not aware of their surroundings so therefore can not determine what safe is.
People jumping on brakes for yellow light and the heavy vehicles take them out.
See how long that lasts and how many lives it costs
