Every police officer of this Town is authorized to act as a
traffic officer in the direction of traffic on any highway where traffic
is heavy or continuous, and the direction by such traffic officers
shall take precedence over any lights or semaphores.
No provision of this chapter or regulation of the Chief of Police
for which signs are required shall be enforced against an alleged
violator if at the time and place of the alleged violation an official
sign is not in proper position and sufficiently legible to be seen
by an ordinarily observant person.
Officers and members of the Fire Company may direct or assist
the police in directing traffic at or in the immediate vicinity of
a fire, and while so acting, shall have all the authority of peace
officers.
