    Every third blink is slower?

    I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    ...Pixar?

    Also somehow I guessed you would be the OP, CA. You seem fond of these sorts of threads.

    It's a screencap from Cars, so I tagged it "Pixar" to be easier to find.

    I seem fond of them?

    That style of traffic light is incompatible with the time period the movie is set in?

    It never switches from yellow?

    ^^ Actually, the Pixar guys clearly went to a lot of effort to get the signs and signals in this movie right for the era, which is why the mistake here sticks out so much, to me.

    ^ So close...

    Hint: What does a flashing yellow light mean?

    they're stopping at a yellow light?

    Either yield or stop...

    Is it that they used a blinking yellow light inside a traffic light with red and green as well?

    Do traffic lights usually blink yellow on one side and red on the other, but here they're both blinking yellow?

    ^ Ding ding ding! Bunny wins!

    It's flashing yellow toward both streets, which would mean both streets have the right of way!

    Yay.

    All my late night driving experience paid off!

    Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
    Wait, you mentioned this before... Oh, yeah! It's flashing yellow both ways. Shouldn't it be flashing red one way?

    curses, ninja'd!

    Yep, no way I'd have guessed that.

    Darn, I overthought it.
