Interesting
Looks very interesting, but as pointed out it would be a problem for colorblind drivers unless you maintained the stack of three.

Lets just use the standards . . .
U. S. Department of Transportation adopted the Manual On Uniform Traffic Control Devices (23 USCA §§ 109(d), 114(a), 217, 315, and 402(a); 22 CFR 655, and 49 CFR 1. 48 (b)(8), 1. 48 (b)(33), and 1. 48(c)(2)). This manual contains a specific standard relating to yellow change clearance intervals. Section 4 D. 10 establishes the standard as: "a yellow signal indication must be displayed following every circular green or green arrow signal indication. The exclusive function of the yellow change interval is to warn traffic of an impending change in the right of way assignment. The duration of yellow change interval must be predetermined. " The manual specifies that a standard is a statement of required, mandatory, or specifically prohibited practice regarding a traffic control device.
The manual contains guidance in connection with this standard. The guidance specifies a yellow change interval should have a duration of approximately three to six seconds and that the longer intervals should be reserved for higher speed approaches. A guidance is a statement of recommended, but not mandatory, practice, in typical situations, with deviations allowed if engineering judgment or engineering study indicates the deviation to be appropriate.

Horrific
That is a terrible idea. Looks just like a drag racing tree to me!
The only thing that keeps cross traffic accidents down to a minimum is the slow reaction time of aarpers' to a green light
It's about the Line- If a line can be drawn between the powers granted and the rights retained, it would seem to be the same thing, whether the latter be secured by declaring that they shall not be abridged, or that the former shall not be extended.
What's the hurry?
you won't get there any sooner than just waiting for the light to change,...... and I am color blind

Baaaad Idea...

Don't forget the strobes from speed/redlight cameras and no left lights.
