Ah just a little joke meaning the moment a yellow light turns red. My dad used to crack that joke, but i don't think he made it up either.

Yes sadly they don’t know that a yellow light is part of a traffic system and isn’t orange.

They’ve just been driving fast when they see these, and end up going through a lot of construction sites

The yellow light gets redshifted for driving near the speed of light.
