St. Pete introduces first flashing yellow arrow signal | News
St. Petersburg, Florida -- Starting this week, the Florida Department of Transportation began testing the flashing yellow signal at one St. Pete intersection.
National studies have shown the flashing yellow arrow is a low-cost safety measure that has been effective in preventing crashes by reminding motorists wanting to turn left to yield to oncoming traffic.
