If a police officer on a motorcycle positions themself behind your vehicle with a device emitting a flashing red light switched on, what must you do?
Signage: Traffic officers
Explanation
When an officer on a motorcycle with a **flashing red light** positions themselves behind your vehicle, it is important to know how to act correctly.
- **Stopping on the right side of the road** is the appropriate action. This is because emergency vehicles, such as police vehicles, have priority on the road. Upon seeing the lights or hearing the siren, all drivers must facilitate their passage by moving to the right and stopping if necessary.
- It is not necessary to wait for the officer to use the loudspeaker to stop. The flashing red light already indicates that you must stop.
- Additionally, it is not correct to exit the vehicle immediately after stopping. The priority is to stop safely and allow the police vehicle to pass or approach.
By following these guidelines, safe transit is ensured and the work of emergency services is facilitated.
