1. Stop sign
A stop sign is a traffic control sign that instructs drivers to come to a complete stop at an intersection or crosswalk, check for other vehicles or pedestrians, and proceed only when it is safe.
- Shape - The stop sign is an octagon (eight-sided), making it easy to recognize.
- Color - It is usually red with white lettering that says 'STOP'.
- Placement - Stop signs are typically placed at intersections where traffic from different directions must yield or stop to avoid collisions.
- Stop completely – Don’t just slow down; make a full stop.
- Yield the right of way – Give priority to any vehicles or pedestrians with the right of way.
- Look left, right, and left again – Ensure it’s safe to proceed.
- Do not block the intersection – After stopping, ensure you don’t obstruct other vehicles from crossing.
