(A) Every person operating a bicycle shall obey the directions of official traffic signals, signs and other control devices applicable to other vehicles, unless otherwise directed by a police officer, and shall obey direction signs relative to turns permitted, unless such person dismounts from the bicycle, when he or she shall then obey the regulations applicable to pedestrians.
(B) If a bicyclist has stopped pursuant to the directions of a traffic-control device and has a reasonable belief that the traffic-control device or signal is inoperative, the bicyclist may disregard or disobey the instructions of the traffic-control device or signal and proceed through the intersection; provided that:
(1) There is no other vehicle approaching or entering the same intersection from a different highway, or from the same highway approaching or entering the intersection from the opposite direction; and
(2) The bicyclist cautiously proceeds through the intersection with reasonable care and consideration for all other applicable rules of the road.
