When a stop is required at an intersection with no stop line or crosswalk:
|
Drivers are required to slow down to make sure crossing traffic is clear.
|
|
|
Drivers should stop at the point nearest the intersecting roadway where the driver has a view of approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway before actually entering the roadway.
|
|
|
Drivers are not required to stop.
|
|
|
Drivers should stop only at a place where the driver can see at least 100 feet on either side.

Explanation
You must come to a stop before the stop line, if there is one. If not, you must stop before entering the crosswalk. If there is no crosswalk, stop before you enter the intersection, at the safest point where you can obtain a clear view of approaching traffic.
