So what do you call the middle light in a traffic signal?

yellow

Yellow, never heard anything else.

I don't surround myself by complete idiots though.

Yellow.

I have heard or read amber though.

Yes, I'm serious, and thought it was friggin hilarious..

They call it orange because it was changing from yellow to red. It's a way of saying they might have run a red light.

So one guy called it orange one day?

Yellow....the most visible color from a distance. They use yellow for that exact reason.
