You are waiting at a red light. You want to proceed straight through the intersection. A police officer standing in the intersection gestures for you to drive through. What should you do?
A faces a red traffic signal at an intersection. A police officer stands clear of A’s straight path and beckons it forward; an enlarged pose detail clarifies the hand direction.
Correct answer: Obey the officer and drive through with care

A police officer's directions overrule all traffic signs and signals. If an officer directs you to proceed through a red light or stop sign, you must do so safely.
