Correct answer
Stop, because the police officer's signal takes priority.
Stop. Orders from an officer regulating traffic take precedence over the signal. Article 133 then ranks temporary signalling and delineation, delimiting devices and delineation signs; followed by traffic lights, vertical signs and road markings. Where signs of the same type conflict, the more restrictive takes precedence.
