Blinking Yellow Lights

The city is thinking about taking out some street lights by where I live - and in the decision process they wanted to shutdown the ligth cycle and just let them blink.  So the main street got blinking yellow lights and the side street got blinkng red lights.  The study was supposed to last two weeks, but ended up lasting only 4 days because too many stupid drivers don't seem to understand blinking yellow lights.  More than half of the cars stopped and behaved as if they were at a four-way stop.  I was going NUTS.  I never honked my horn - but my hand was wavering over it. Now hopefully they just remove the damn things and get on with it already.
