- You must stop on the right side.
- You must be especially alert because a hazard is nearby.
- The road is temporarily closed to traffic once this motorcycle has passed.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The road is temporarily closed to traffic once this motorcycle has passed.
A red flag on an officers' vehicle establishes a temporary closure of the roadway from the moment that vehicle passes. It does not simply mean that extra caution is required.
