Regulatory, Lane & Parking SignsStandalone practice
You approach a red eight-sided sign with the word STOP. There is no painted stop line or crosswalk, but sidewalks meet the street on both corners. Where must you stop?
Correct answer: Before the unmarked crosswalk, where the sidewalks would join across your lane
Why
An unmarked crosswalk is still a place where people on foot may cross, so a stop inside it puts them in danger. The eight-sided shape is used for STOP signs, so you can know the sign even when fog, snow or darkness makes the word hard to read. If a wide white stop line is painted, stop at it. After the stop, give the right-of-way to pedestrians and to cross traffic before you move again.
