Hello Alan, Mister Micawber, Beeesneees, Mordant, Esl_Expert and other native English speakers,

Blinking yellow
Steady yellow
Steady green
Blinking green

I understand all above, but could I ask you if these uses of the words "steady" and "blinking" are correct?

Yes, they sound reasonable. Or 'flashing' instead of 'blinking'.
