In a road work zone, a flagger holds up a STOP paddle, but the traffic signal just past the flagger shows green. What should you do?
A approaches a flagger holding a STOP paddle on a two-way road. The paddle is also enlarged, and a labeled detail states that the traffic signal beyond the flagger is green.
Correct answer: Stop at least 25 feet before the flagger and wait for the signal to go
Why
Work zones change quickly, and the flagger can see hazards and oncoming traffic that you cannot. The manual says that drivers must follow a flagger's instructions, and RSA 265:3-b sets the stopping point at least 25 feet before the flagger. When the flagger waves you on, drive slowly and watch for workers and equipment.
