Explanation
If you see flaggers or law enforcement officers directing traffic, you must obey their instructions, even if they differ from traffic signs or signals.
When a flagger faces you and extends an arm holding a red flag, this is a signal to stop. Do not proceed until you are clearly directed to do so. Failing to follow a flagger’s instructions is illegal and puts both road workers and other drivers at risk.
