Today I was driving down a 2 way road. One side was under construction. There was a strip about 75yards long that was unavailable to drive on. 2 police officers were directing traffic. However, the 1 that was closest to me (supposed to be directing me) was on his cell phone sitting on the back of 1 of the construction trucks. So, I couldn't tell if the other officer (farthest away from me) was waving me to come or stop. I have 20/20 vision- no glasses- I had my eyes checked 4months ago. I could see him fine. But he wasn't clear in his signals. The other side of traffic was stopped. I thought he was waving me to go, so I went. When I was driving by him he yelled at me to "stop!". So I did. He then said "Is your mind in the f*****g right place?"- in a very rude manner. I just looked at him, a little stunned, and didn't say anything. He then said calmly "well, go ahead". I was so confused. Did he want me to stop and I didn't? Should I have said something to him?
