Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations provide that, in the absence of law enforcement officers or to assist them, road works personnel regulate the passage of vehicles using the signs of the Official Catalog incorporated into a paddle. Road users are required to follow the instructions of the personnel assigned to regulate the passage of vehicles in road works sections (Article 60(5)). It is therefore mandatory to obey them. They are not merely advisory, nor do they carry less weight than those of other officers, and they do not depend on an emergency or police vehicle being present either.
