When driving a tram, are you obliged to stop upon a signal given by a police offer?

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

The uniformed police officer shown in the photograph is authorised to direct traffic. Directions and signals given by such a person take precedence over traffic signals and traffic signs. Every road user, including a tram driver, has an absolute obligation to comply with them.
