This offence relates to the signals given by members of the Garda Síochána when on point duty. As indicated in the Road Traffic Act 2002, Part 4, offence reference number 11, the offence concerned is contained in article 19 of the Road Traffic (Traffic and Parking) Regulations 1997, SI 182 of 1997. A description of each of the five Garda signals involved and the duties of drivers in respect of these are set out in Table C in the Second Schedule to those 1997 regulations. Details of the signals are already set out in the current edition of the Rules of the Road and they will feature in the forthcoming revised edition also.
