Regulatory, Lane & Parking SignsStandalone practice
You drive up to a red, eight-sided sign with the word STOP. The cross street looks empty, and no one is near the corner. What must you do?

Correct answer: Stop completely, then yield to any pedestrians and close traffic before you go on
Why
The red octagon is used only for STOP signs, so you can recognize it even when snow or dirt covers the word. Drivers who roll through because the road looked empty often miss a pedestrian, bicyclist or fast car that appears late. After the full stop, look in all directions and enter only when your path is clear.
