Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations establish a clear order of priority between the different types of signals when they appear to contradict each other: 1st Traffic officers' signals and instructions, 2nd Temporary signs and beacons, 3rd Traffic lights, 4th Vertical traffic signs and 5th Horizontal signs or road markings. Since the traffic light occupies the third step of the hierarchy and the STOP road marking the fifth, a green light overrides the obligation to stop imposed by the paint on the road surface, allowing you to cross the intersection without stopping.
