    Ignore the officer's hand signals and proceed straight ahead to obey the posted sign.
  3. C
    Stop at the intersection and wait until the officer changes directions to allow straight travel.
  4. D
    Treat the prohibited turn sign as a yield requirement and turn only when no pedestrians are present.

Cevap

Follow the directions of the traffic officer and complete the right turn.
Manual signals and verbal instructions given by a law enforcement or traffic officer always supersede traffic control devices, including posted regulatory signs, red lights, and lane markings. Drivers must obey the officer's commands immediately and safely.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the conflict between the posted regulatory sign and the traffic officer's instruction.
Recognize that the sign prohibits turning right, but the officer is explicitly instructing a right turn.
Traffic laws establish a strict hierarchy of authority when traffic control devices and manual directions conflict.
2
Apply the right-of-way priority rule regarding law enforcement officers.
Determine that manual directions from an active traffic officer supersede all static regulatory signs and automated signals.
Law enforcement officers manage active road conditions, incidents, and hazards that static signs cannot account for.
