Explanation
Always come to a stop just before the white top bar when you arrive at an intersection, and check in all directions for approaching vehicles or pedestrians before proceeding. If necessary, for a more complete view of the road, slowly and carefully pull forward without interfering with the traffic. If you see oncoming vehicles, immediately stop where you are without pulling out further.
