Follow the officer's instructions, they take precidence over traffic controls such as stoplights or signs. This applies to a uniformed public safety official performing traffic control, thus might be a firefighter, etc, instead of a police officer. FOLLOW me on instagram @merakiy
You go through. Don't doubt the officer.
When a traffic officer directs you to proceed through an intersection while a red light is visible, you should follow the officer's instructions, as their directions take precedence over traffic signals. Ensure that the intersection is clear of pedestrians and other vehicles before proceeding. Always remain cautious and aware of your surroundings to ensure safety.
When you have the right of way at an intersection, you should proceed through the intersection without stopping or yielding to other vehicles or pedestrians. It is important to stay alert and watch for any potential hazards, even if you have the right of way.
An intersection is where two or more roads meet. Drivers should approach an intersection cautiously, obey traffic signals and signs, yield to other vehicles when necessary, and always be aware of pedestrians and cyclists. It is important to look in all directions before proceeding through an intersection to ensure safety for all road users.
You really can't. There isn't any excuse, like possible missing a speed limit change, or being clocked incorrectly. If the officer saw you go through the intersection without stopping you are pretty much stuck. Now if the officer couldn't see you when you were stopped at the intersection, say you stopped 5 or so feet back from the line and were behind a building, you might be able to contest it. But if he couldn't see you, chances are that you couldn't see whether it was safe to proceed, which would be about the same penalty wise.
When the man made a motion towards his pocket, the ready police officer detained him.
When approaching a 4-way intersection with 2 stop signs, the rule is to come to a complete stop and yield the right of way to any vehicles that arrived before you. After stopping, proceed through the intersection in the order that vehicles arrived at the stop signs. It is important to be cautious and alert to avoid accidents.
When approaching an intersection with a flashing yellow light, you should proceed with caution. Slow down, be prepared to stop if necessary, and yield to any oncoming traffic or pedestrians. It is important to be alert and aware of your surroundings to ensure a safe passage through the intersection.
In Texas, at an uncontrolled intersection, the vehicle on the through road has the right-of-way. If two vehicles arrive at the intersection simultaneously, the vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right. Additionally, drivers must always be cautious and yield to any pedestrians crossing the intersection. It's essential for all drivers to approach such intersections with care and be prepared to stop if necessary.
she sped through the intersection like a maniac!
When approaching an intersection and the traffic light changes from green to yellow, you should assess your distance from the intersection and your speed. If you can safely stop without skidding, it’s best to do so to avoid entering the intersection on red. However, if you are too close to stop safely, you should proceed through the intersection cautiously. Always be alert for other vehicles or pedestrians that might act unpredictably during this transition.
Controlled intersections have traffic lights, yield signs or stop signs to control traffic. At a controlled intersection where you face a green light, drive carefully through the intersection at a steady speed. If the light has been green for a while, be prepared to stop when it turns yellow. However, if you are already so close that you cannot stop safely, drive through the intersection with caution. Where you face a red light, come to a complete stop and wait until the light turns green. When you approach an intersection on a main road, and the intersection is blocked with traffic, stop before entering the intersection and wait until the traffic ahead moves on. This does not apply if you are turning left or right. At a controlled intersection where you face a yield sign, slow down or stop if necessary and wait until the way is clear before driving through the intersection. At a controlled intersection where you face a stop sign, come to a complete stop. Drive through the intersection only when the way is clear (Diagram 2-15).
