BDifficulty 1/5

You approach an officer from the side of their extended arm and perpendicular to it. They move that arm alternately up and down. What must you do?

Correct answer

Reduce your speed.

Reduce speed under Annex I section 1.1.d. The order applies to those approaching from the signalling arm’s side and perpendicular to it. It indicates neither a turn nor, by itself, an immediate stop on the right. Slow in a controlled way and follow any further instruction; applicable officer instructions take precedence over other signals.
