What should you do if you see a stop sign?

When you encounter a stop sign, the appropriate action is to come to a complete stop before proceeding. This rule is in place to ensure the safety of all road users, including pedestrians and other vehicles, by providing a clear indication that you need to halt your vehicle completely before entering the intersection.

Stopping allows you to assess the situation for any oncoming traffic, ensure the intersection is clear, and make safe decisions about when to continue driving. This rule helps prevent accidents and promotes safe driving practices, which is essential in maintaining road safety.

While other options might suggest less stringent actions or conditions under which to stop, they do not adhere to traffic laws and can compromise the safety of both the driver and others on the road.
