Question

Instructions given by traffic police or construction flaggers _____. A. Are sometimes important to follow B. Are usually not important to follow C. Don't overrule laws or traffic control devices D. Overrule any other laws and traffic control devices

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Overrule any other laws and traffic control devices.

Explanation:

Laws and traffic control devices are undoubtedly compulsory to be followed at every point in time to control traffic and other related situations. However, there are cases when certain instructions overrule these laws and traffic control devices. For example, when a traffic police is giving instructions, and though the traffic control devices too (such as traffic lights) are displaying their own preset lights to control some traffic, the instructions from the traffic police take more priority. This is because at that point in time, the instructions from the traffic control devices might not be just applicable or sufficient.

Also, in the case of instructions given by construction flaggers, these instructions have priority over those from controlling devices. This is because during construction traffic controls are redirected from the norms. Therefore, the flaggers such be given more importance.
