The rule is crystal clear. The judge explained it to me. "Yellow means stop. Did you proceed through the intersection even though the light was yellow?" "Yes, but it was unsafe to stop because of the ice." "Guilty. It is illegal to enter an intersection on a yellow and that cop over there says it was safe."
Boom. Done. Here's my $300 or whatever it was.

Perhaps you've already answered this in the last hundred posts I haven't read yet, but what was the intersection and your direction of travel? Was there an advanced flashing yellow warning lights? Pedestrian countdown timer (I know this one is inconsistent)?
