Can you continue driving in this situation?
Description
Art. 5 para. 1 and para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act of June 20, 1997, in conjunction with para. 3 pt. 1 and 2 of the Regulation on Traffic Control.
Explanation
Correct answer: No
No. A police officer is directing traffic at the intersection. Under Art. 5 para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act, the officer's instructions take precedence over traffic lights and road signs. The officer stands with his back to you, and standing with the front or the back towards a driver means the same as a red light: no entry into the intersection. So even though the light is green, you must stop.
