From the law
The right hand raised up in the air with the palm opened straight to the vehicles that are moving toward the traffic police as the precaution signs to a stop except any drivers who cannot afford to stop safely can go a head.
Student tip
If a traffic officer raises their hand, be ready to stop. Only proceed if stopping would be unsafe.
Common confusion: Some drivers might think it means "stop immediately" regardless of safety.
