Notes of Decisions
Applicability
Where the trial court determined that the arresting officer had articulable and reasonable grounds to suspect that the appellant had violated the Motor Vehicle Code, it is irrelevant whether a traffic signal was not placed in accordance with regulations. Commonwealth v. Snell, 811 A.2d 581 (Pa. Super. 2002), appeal denied 820 A.2d 162 (Pa. 2003).
Notes of Decisions
In upholding a PUC order directing the installation of traffic lights at two railroad crossing, the Court noted that the regulations at 67 Pa. Code § 211.1012(a) lend credence to the proposition that PUC may order the installation of signals at highway-rail crossings without the Department of Transportation’s approval. City of Philadelphia v. Public Utility Commission, 458 A.2d 1026 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1983).
