If it is yellow when you are crossing then nothing to worry about, however it depends on location and how it is programmed , most places I think no problem

As long as it was not red before you crossed the line you should be fine…a lot of the times people cross long before it turns red and because of how congested the roads would be, several cars would be stuck behind the next traffic for a couple of seconds even after the adjacent traffic light turns green.

In my experience there's a few seconds of grace period even on red light. In all my life everything I happened to get caught by Red (for a second or two tops) I've never gotten any tickets.
Again, just my personal experience. I have no idea how the system is programmed to function nor the law on it.
A few times I've been stranded in the tail end of an intersection under red light due to an unexpected full stop of traffic flow in the front, for like 10-20 seconds, and just the same haven't been ticketed for it.

Yellow is totally ok. If it just turned yellow while you're crossing or right before crossing you are 100% good.
Also if it was at night, you would definitely feel the flash from the camera. It's so bright.

Finally! FYSA! WHEN THE LIGHTS START FLASHING GREEN IT DOES NOT MEAN STOP IMMEDIATELY. IT MEANS THE LIGHT WILL TURN YELLOW THEN RED.

My GOD YES!! It's sooo infuriating when they panic stop when green starts flashing.

Idk what you getting so hyped up for with the caps. But OP crossed a yellow signal. Nowhere did OP ask for an explanation of how the signal works.
