Question 6894

When you see this STOP road marking, where must vehicles stop?

  1. Before the stop line.
  2. Before reaching the road marking.
  3. On the longitudinal line, without going past it.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Before the stop line.

The painted STOP marking is just as mandatory as the upright sign. Stop before the stop line, which is beyond the word, like the gray passenger car in the image, then yield to vehicles on the road you are approaching. The word does not mark where you stop.
