How should you respond to a stop-and-go signal from a police officer?

When you receive a stop-and-go signal from a police officer, the appropriate response is to safely pull over and follow the officer's instructions. This action demonstrates compliance with the law and respect for the authority of law enforcement personnel. Pulling over allows the officer to effectively communicate with you regarding your behavior on the road, whether it be a traffic violation, routine check, or any other situation.

Failing to stop or trying to flee can lead to serious legal consequences, including charges that could escalate the situation. Maintaining calmness and cooperating with law enforcement ensures that the encounter remains safe for both you and the officer. It’s essential to acknowledge that while you may feel you are not doing anything wrong, ignoring the signal or continuing to drive can lead to misunderstandings and more significant issues. Always prioritize safety and adherence to police instructions in these scenarios.
