In your rear-view mirror, you see the words "STOP POLIZEI" (Stop Police) in red illuminated letters on the roof of a police car immediately behind your car. Who does this apply to?

When a police car displays the illuminated sign "STOP POLIZEI" behind your vehicle, this order applies specifically to you as the driver of the car directly in front of the police vehicle. You must pull over and stop safely to comply with the police instruction. Other vehicles on the road or behind you are not directly addressed by this signal and are not required to stop unless separately instructed. This focused instruction helps ensure clear and immediate compliance from the intended driver without causing confusion among other road users.
