Explanation
When you approach a stop line, you should stop at the stop line. The stop line is a designated marking on the road that indicates the point where you are required to come to a complete stop. Stopping at the stop line ensures that you have clear visibility of cross traffic and pedestrians, allowing for safer and more orderly flow of traffic. It also helps in maintaining proper spacing between vehicles at intersections, reducing the risk of collisions.
