In addition to arm signals, can traffic officers use other types of signals?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Yes, that is correct. Traffic officers tasked with surveillance can use sound signals (acoustic) via a whistle to give orders. As a general rule, you must remember that a series of short, frequent blasts orders vehicles to stop, while one long blast indicates that driving may resume. Therefore, they are not limited solely to hand signals; acoustic signals take precedence over other rules and help capture drivers' attention.
