Explanation
If an intersection has a stop sign but no painted stop line, you must stop before entering the intersection to make sure you have a clear view of cross traffic and pedestrians. If there is a marked or unmarked crosswalk, stop before reaching it. After stopping, if your view is obstructed, slowly inch forward and scan both directions for approaching vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. Always yield to vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians and bicyclists, and to any traffic already in the intersection when making a turn.
