A yellow arrow means you should proceed with caution and complete the turn in the direction of the arrow if you can do so safely as the protected turning phase is ending. The idea is to finish the turn while you still have the cue, but you must yield to pedestrians and any oncoming traffic that may be in your path. If stopping safely is possible, you should do so rather than forcing a risky turn. The best action is to turn in the arrow’s direction and pass through the intersection when it’s safe. The other options fail because they either require rushing through without regard for safety, delaying the turn unnecessarily, or waiting for traffic in a way that could hold up the intersection.
