A remote operated safety attendant having a substantially pyramidic housing made of high impact material such as manufactured dense fiber. A two sided sign is mounted to a shaft positioned within the housing and connected to a drive motor and a remote signal receiver. A remote signal sender is used to send signals to the receiver to selectively actuate the drive mechanism which rotates to alternately display the opposed sides of the sign. The device meets requisite traffic safety requirements and allows an operator to remotely control the device to remain out of the pathway of vehicles that they are controlling through the signaling device.
