When you drive a vehicle and notice members of the school traffic patrols, at the pedestrian crossings near the educational institutions, who address you stop signals, you have the obligation to stop, allowing the respective patrol to cross the street. Therefore, in such a situation, it is not enough only to reduce the speed and to drive with attention, because stopping is compulsory.
Do not confuse “members of the school traffic patrols” with “organized groups”, when passing near which you have the obligation to drive with a speed that does not exceed 30 km/h in the urban area or 50 km/h outside the urban area, when they are in motion or are waiting on the carriageway of the roads with a single traffic lane on each direction.
When you drive a vehicle you do NOT have the obligation to move on the lane next to the axis of the road at the signals given by the members of the school traffic patrols, at the pedestrian crossings near the educational institutions. Moreover, this is NOT permitted to you, considering that you have the obligation to stop at their signals.
When you drive a vehicle you have the obligation to stop at the signals given by the members of the school traffic patrols, at the pedestrian crossings near the educational institutions.
