This is common practice from the early days of traffic signals in Israel when they often failed to operate due to electricity outages. Local road regulations refer to pecking order First you obey the traffic cop -- If the traffic cop is not functioning obey the traffic signal -- If the traffic signal is not functioning obey the traffic sign. Logical, no?
American born, my wife and I moved to Israel in 1970. We have lived at Shiloh together with our family since 1981. I was in the Betar youth movement in the US and UK. I have worked as a political aide to Members of Knesset and a Minister during 1981-1994, lectured at the Academy for National Studies 1977-1994, was director of Israel's Media Watch 1995-2000 and currently, I work at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center in Jerusalem. I was a guest media columnist on media affairs for The Jerusalem Post, op-ed contributor to various journals and for six years had a weekly media show on Arutz 7 radio. I serve as an unofficial spokesperson for the Jewish Communities in Judea & Samaria.
