Explanation
Signal lights are placed at many intersections to regulate the flow of traffic. Drivers must obey the signal lights unless a police officer is directing traffic to do otherwise. Directions given by traffic officers take precedence over signs, signals or pavement markings. This means that even if a traffic light is green, you must stop if a police officer signals you to do so.
