BDifficulty 2/5

You approach an agent with one arm raised vertically and can stop safely; you have not entered an intersection. What must you do?

Correct answer

Stop, obeying the agent's signal.

Stop at the nearest stop line or, if none exists, immediately before the agent; at an intersection, stop before entering. The agent’s orders take precedence over other signals. A vertical arm does not require stopping where that cannot be done sufficiently safely or, at an intersection, by drivers who have already entered it. The question excludes those exceptions.
