Does the signal displayed by the authorised person indicate that in a moment you will be allowed to enter the junction?

Description

§ 108 para. 4 of the Regulation on Road Signs and Signals in conjunction with Art. 6 para. 1 pt. 1 of the Road Traffic Act

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

The police officer visible in the photo is holding his arm up, which corresponds to the yellow signal of a traffic light. According to § 108 para. 4 of the Regulation on Road Signs and Signals, this gesture informs that a signal change is about to occur. Since the officer is standing with his back to you (which meant a prohibition of entry), the next traffic phase will allow you to enter the intersection.
