Signals and road markingsQuestion 80 of 312

The light is green, but a police officer at the intersection signals you to stop. What must you do?

  1. Obey the light and drive on
  2. Obey the officer and stop
  3. Slow down and go if the road is clear
  4. Stop only if other cars stop
Show answer

Correct answer: Obey the officer and stop

A traffic officer's direction overrides the signal. Drivers obey the officer when the officer directs otherwise.
