I'm not a LEO, but I would expect that any traffic sign that requires a stop (regulatory sign) needs to have some sort of red color in it.
Yellow (warning) signs should just be cautionary, i.e. not requiring any specific action. However, if you see someone approaching or perhaps crossing the road, you of course need to stop. The sign is supposed to just draw your attention to the crossing area so you can be more cautious. I believe you are expected to drive slowly in a way that you can be prepared to stop should you need to.
Signs don't typically have double meaning unless explained clearly on the sign, such as "When flashing," or time of day.
