Question 6466
Other than at an intersection, where must the driver of a vehicle approaching a traffic officer head-on who has an arm raised vertically stop?
- Immediately before the traffic officer, even if a stop line exists.
- On roads with two-way traffic, immediately after the traffic officer.
- At the stop line and, if there is none, immediately before the traffic officer.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: At the stop line and, if there is none, immediately before the traffic officer.
Stop before the nearest stop line, like the white line across the roadway ahead of you in the image. If there is no stop line, stop just before the officer. You must not continue past the officer, even on a two-way road. The officer may later give you another signal indicating where they want you to stop.
