bility thereof on such streets or intersections, and where the
factors creating the special hazard are such that, according to

stallation of stop signs is reasonably calculated to reduce the
expectancy of accidents and that the use of warning signs would

apparent probability thereof, or because of physical conditions
• which render such intersection hazardous to life or property,
and where the factors are such that according to the principles

installed, the Traffic Authority may erect, place and maintain
signs prohibiting the making of right turns by drivers of vehicles
against the red light or other means employed by said mechanical
controlled devices indicating that the drivers of :vehicles travel-
ing in one or more general directions shall stop, whenever the
said Traffic Authority determines that such right turns would
seriously interfere with the safe and orderly flow of traffic.
During the time such signs are so erected or placed, no
right hand turn shall be permitted against the red signal or
stop signal or other means used to indicate that traffic approach-
ing the intersection in one general direction shall stop, and no
operator or driver of any vehicle shall make any right hand turn
