Question 289 of 419

How do you proceed at the signal of the traffic police officer with the arm raised vertically?

A you stop, regardless of the direction from which you are approaching, and wait for his next signal;
B you reduce the speed and move in the direction allowed by the position of the arm;
C you reduce the speed and avoid him.

Explanation

The arm of the traffic police officer raised vertically signifies “Attention, stop!” for all the traffic participants who are approaching, except for the drivers of vehicles who could no longer stop in safe conditions.

If the signal is given in an intersection, it does not impose the stopping of the drivers of vehicles who are already engaged in crossing.

Therefore, at the signal of the traffic police officer with the arm raised vertically you must stop and wait for his next signal.

The correct answer is: A
