What is the prevailing order of priority among the different types of traffic signals in case of contradiction?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The order of priority is fundamental for road safety and establishes which signal to obey when there are contradictions. The strict hierarchy, from highest to lowest authority, is: Signals and orders from Traffic Agents/Police. Circumstantial and beaconing signaling (cones, roadworks, etc.). Traffic lights. Vertical traffic signs. Road markings (horizontal). Therefore, an Agent rules over a traffic light, and a traffic light rules over a road marking.
