What clothing does the Florida manual say flaggers wear in a work zone?
-
A.
Reflective helmets and dark navy coveralls.
-
B.
Bright colored or fluorescent vests or jackets. Correct
-
C.
White gloves and a matching peaked hat.
-
D.
A law enforcement uniform with a duty badge.
The answer is "Bright colored or fluorescent vests or jackets."
The manual describes flaggers wearing bright colored or fluorescent vests or jackets. A test-taker borrowing the formal traffic-officer look from television picks C's white gloves and peaked hat, dressing up the flagger in ceremony rather than in the high-visibility clothing the manual names.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Reflective helmets and dark navy coveralls.
The manual does not list helmets or coveralls; it names vests and jackets. This answer guesses at construction-crew gear rather than the flagger-specific clothing the manual names.
C. White gloves and a matching peaked hat.
The manual does not use gloves or a hat as identifiers for a flagger. This answer borrows a formal traffic-officer look from television rather than the vest the manual describes.
D. A law enforcement uniform with a duty badge.
The manual describes the flagger as a worker in high-visibility clothing, not a sworn officer. This answer conflates the flagger with the police officer listed next to them, mixing two authorities the manual keeps separate.
