Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: No, except for a justified reason.
Except for a justified reason, no one may install, remove, move, cover, or change a sign or signal without authorization from the road owner or traffic authority. This applies equally to road work signs, temporary signs, and channelizing devices. Removing, concealing, or altering traffic signs or signals is a very serious traffic violation.
