Question 3862

If a police officer on a motorcycle with a flashing red light device turned on pulls in behind your vehicle, what must you do?

  1. Continue driving, unless the officer uses the loudspeaker.
  2. Stop when you can and get out of the vehicle immediately.
  3. Stop on the right side of the roadway, in front of the police vehicle.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Stop on the right side of the roadway, in front of the police vehicle.

A forward-facing flashing red light on a police vehicle orders the driver ahead to stop. Stop on the right side, in front of the motorcycle, somewhere you won’t put others at risk. Then follow the officer’s instructions without getting out of the car on your own. The light itself is the order, so don’t wait to hear the loudspeaker.
