Shouldn't have said you would have skidded, that means you were going too fast.

Thing is,the amber light isnt just on for a split second.It gives plenty of time to start slowing down.If you were on the stop line when it went red,at 15-20mph you would have been quite a bit away from the line with plenty of time to stop.
