Traffic safetyQuestion #15076
Why might an amber beacon be switched on?
Explanation
An amber beacon does not grant priority. Its purpose is to draw the attention of other road users and warn of a possible hazard — for example during roadworks, when carrying dangerous or oversized loads, or when escorting a group of cyclists.
KET reference: KET 188: an amber beacon grants no priority; it only draws attention and warns other road users of a possible hazard.
