No provision of this chapter for which signs are required shall be enforced against an alleged violator if at the time and place of the alleged violation an official sign is not in proper position and sufficiently legible to be seen by an ordinarily observant person. Whenever a particular section does not state that signs are required, that section shall be effective even though no signs are erected or in place.
(1988 Code, § 14-54)
Statutory reference:
Traffic-control signs and the like, see G.S. §§ 20-158 et seq.
