No operator of a motor vehicle, other than a tractor-trailer unit, as defined in C.G.S. § 14-1, shall proceed into an intersection that has been designated, posted and marked by the Town of Newtown in accordance with Connecticut state statutes, except when making a turn, unless there is sufficient space on the opposite side of the intersection to accommodate such motor vehicle without obstructing the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, notwithstanding the indication of a traffic control signal that would permit such an operator to proceed into the intersection.
Enforcement of this article shall be the purview of state and local law enforcement officers whose jurisdiction contains the intersections designated in § 216-25.
