For some reason I thought that if a traffic signal is not working(no power) that the intersection becomes a 4-way stop. Does anyone know if this is true or not? Can you cite for this? It would seem like the logical thing to do. Most people just fly right through. Just curious.

Check out Chapter 4 of the of the Massachusetts RMV driver's manual. You shall find your answer there.

Thanks. You treat every non-working signal as a stop sign.

Paragraph 5 of Ch. 89 s.9:
"The driver of a motor vehicle shall not cross or enter an intersection, which it is unable to proceed through, without stopping and thereby blocking vehicles from travelling in a free direction. A green light is no defense to blocking the intersection. The driver must wait another cycle of the signal light, if necessary. "
