DIRECTIONS:

In a motor race competition certain rules are given for the participants to follow. To control direction and speed of the motorists, guards are placed at different signal points with caps of different colour.

Guard with red cap indicates the direction of participant's movement and guards with green cap indicates the speed of the participant's movement. At any signal point presence of three guards, two guards and one guard with red cap means the participant must stop, turn left and turn right respectively.
