When a vehicle traveling on a road with two-way traffic is preparing to turn at an intersection and the intersection does not have a protected turn across oncoming traffic, the yellow trap may occur when the vehicle preparing to turn is given an amber light, while at the same time, traffic on the same road moving in the opposite direction still has a green light.
