Explanation
At an intersection with a STOP sign, but no stop line or crosswalk, you must come to a complete stop before entering the intersection. Before starting, you must yield the right-of-way to other vehicles and pedestrians in or approaching the intersection. You may not proceed until it is safe to do so. Check for traffic and pedestrians, and then proceed when the intersection is clear. Slowing down without coming to a full stop is illegal.
