Why do Traffic Officers put out lights and cones in the daylight behind their vehicle while parked on the hard shoulder?
Traffic Officers will put out cones and lights, if needed, to improve the visibility of our vehicles and to provide a safe working area and clear information to approaching drivers. It is also to avoid our vehicles being struck by errant vehicles encroaching on the hard shoulder and to ensure the safety of the public and our staff.
