Question 6178
Must the driver of the white passenger car obey the stop sign when reaching the intersection?
- Yes, the driver must obey the existing pavement markings.
- Yes, but only if it continues straight ahead.
- No, because the road marking is only for those turning left.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: No, because the road marking is only for those turning left.
STOP is painted in the left lane, the one with the turn arrow. A marking painted within a lane bounded by lines applies only to drivers using that lane. The white passenger car is in the adjacent lane, so that STOP marking does not require its driver to stop.
