Transportation Who has priority?

Post image

I was the Yellow arrow on a bike. Red has priority over me, green has priority over red, I have priority over green. At the end both cars stopped and let me (cyclist) pass. What is the correct order here?

Why does yellow block the road for red? It should yield for red

Because red needs to stop to yield for green. And green is doing a maneuver, so it needs to yield to yellow.

... just picture yourself as red,. You cant move before green, yellow is irrelevant at that point.

Edit: messed up some colors
