When you encounter a stop sign you must?

Any time you approach a stop sign while driving, you must come to a full stop. At four-way stop intersections, also known as “courtesy corners”, all vehicles approaching the intersection are required to come to a complete stop. Safety dictates that the vehicle that stops first, proceeds first.

When coming up to a stop sign should you stop and if so where should you stop?

You must stop at or behind the yellow line at a stop sign. You can then move forward gradually until you can see clearly up the road. Stop signs are used at blind intersections where lack of visibility makes approaching the intersection at any more than 10kph unsafe.

“When you’re turning, you must give way to vehicles going straight,” a spokeswoman said. “However, while the driver of the blue car would expect to have right of way, they should be prepared to stop if the red car doesn’t see them or does not give way.”

What should you do if the vehicle behind you wishes to pass?

Correct. You can also make sure that you keep to the left of the lane to give more room for the passing vehicle, but don’t move too far left as road sweepers can move debris off the main driven road surface and moving too far over can cause a puncture.

What should you do when you come upon a stop sign?

When you come upon a stop sign, come to a complete halt so that your vehicle has no momentum. Do not simply slow down or pause. Try to come smoothly to a stop rather than slamming on the brakes. If there is a solid white bar or a crosswalk painted across the intersection, you should stop before it, so that you don’t block it.

What should you do if there is no painted stopping line?

If there is no painted stopping line, then stop slightly before the stop sign so that you can see in all directions at the intersection. If you cannot see clearly around the intersection, slowly pull forward slightly until you can see, and come to a complete stop again.

How long should you slow down before a stop sign?

The exact amount of time or distance you need to stop will depend upon a number of factors, including your speed, the weather, and the physical conditions of the road. However, you should start slowing down at least 150 feet before the stop sign.

What happens if there is another vehicle at a stop sign?

If there is already another vehicle (car, motorcycle, bicycle, etc.) stopped at the stop sign across the street from you when you come to the stop sign, you are required to let it proceed first. The vehicle may turn to the left or right (your right or left), or move straight across the intersection.
