- Yes.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: No, because the traffic light takes precedence over the stop sign.
You do not need to stop. Traffic lights take precedence over upright signs, so with a green light you can continue straight ahead with the right-of-way even if there is a STOP sign on the same post. If the traffic light were off or flashing yellow, you would have to obey the STOP sign.
