What it means
Traffic Officer Signal: When one arm is raised with the palm to the front and the other is extended sideways, traffic from both the front and the rear MUST stop.
What to do
- Stop: both directions on your road are being held.
- Expect cross traffic to be released while you wait.
In the K53 test
One arm raised and the other extended sideways stop your road in both directions, usually to run the cross street or protect the junction.
Where you will see it
Wherever a traffic officer is directing traffic; their signals outrank lights.
