Wrong. Again, I have DONE this, personally.

This was in California.

Here is the law, DIRECTLY from the California DMV Driver Handbook. I am copying and pasting:

Solid Yellow- A yellow signal light means "CAUTION." The red signal is about to appear. When you see the yellow light, stop if you can do so safely. If you can?t stop safely, enter the intersection cautiously.
