I presume you mean after a storm or power failure and they flash red in all directions.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Suddenly you have a four-way stop with five lanes in each direction. Who has right-of-way? Wait...it's my turn...damn guy turning left...no...go go go go!...inch forward inch forward...100 yards, repeat at next intersection...
