REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §11-201.
Throughout this section and this subtitle, the
short title "Maryland Vehicle Law" is
substituted for the present references to
"this article"; see §11—206 of this article.
Also, the term "traffic control device" is
substituted for "official traffic-control
device"; see §11—167 of this article.
In subsection (a) of this section, the term
"emergency vehicle" is substituted for
"authorized emergency vehicle"; see §11—118 of
this article. As to the exception granted the
drivers of these vehicles, see §21—106 of this
title.
Also in subsection (a), the present reference
to a "traffic ... officer" is deleted as an
unnecessarily confusing synonym for the term
"police officer", as defined in §11—147 of
this article.
Subsection (b) of this section is revised to
clarify and assure its applicability to
ordinances and regulations of local
authorities as well, such as those adopted
under §25—102(a) of this article and requiring
traffic control devices under §25-102(c).
The only other changes are in style.
