When you see this sign you should stop and:

Proceed when someone yields the right-of-way to you.
Wait three seconds before proceeding.
Check for pedestrians and cross traffic.
Proceed only when you see a green light.
Explanation

If you see a stop sign, it means you must come to a complete stop at the designated stopping point (marked line, crosswalk, or intersection edge) and proceed only after checking that the road is clear of traffic in all directions. Even when no other traffic is visible, your vehicle's wheels must come to a total stop-this is a legal requirement. Only after coming to a full stop and verifying the intersection is clear in all directions - left, right, and ahead for potential hazards - may you cautiously proceed.
