What are traffic officers authorised to do on motorways?

Explanation: Traffic officers are allowed to stop and direct traffic on motorways and some 'A' class roads, even though they don't have enforcement powers. Traffic officers work in partnership with police at incidents. They can be recognised by their orange-and-yellow reflective jackets and the yellow-and-black markings on their vehicles.
