Which two people are "police assistants" (people assisting police officers) whose signals or directions must be obeyed? Select TWO
Police assistants whose signals and instructions must be followed are limited to the persons listed in Article 6 of the Enforcement Decree; volunteering on your own does not make you one (Article 5(1)2 of the Road Traffic Act). Check the attached conditions too, such as which vehicles a firefighter must be guiding.
Answer: ②, ④
Explanation
Under Article 5(1)2 of the Road Traffic Act and Article 6 of the Enforcement Decree, police assistants are exemplary drivers, military police guiding the movement of units mobilized for military training or operations, and firefighters guiding fire trucks or ambulances operating for their original emergency purpose. A parking attendant or a volunteering ordinary driver is not included, so their hand signals are not signals one is legally required to follow.
