In a work zone, a flagger holds up a STOP paddle. You see no workers or equipment on the road ahead. What must you do?
Blue A approaches a flagger holding a STOP paddle. The road ahead has cones but no visible work crew, and an enlarged exact paddle face is shown.
Correct answer: Stop, and stay stopped until the flagger signals you to go.
Why
In many work zones, traffic from both directions must share one lane, and flaggers or pilot cars control who uses it. If you move before the signal, you can meet oncoming traffic or hit a worker. Disobeying a flagger is a traffic violation, and the penalty can be doubled in a work zone.
