Sample question from test 6
signs
What must a driver do when approaching a Missouri stop sign?
- Slow down only when another vehicle is nearby
- Stop after entering the intersection
- Yield without stopping if the road looks clear
- Make a full stop before proceeding
Answer: Make a full stop before proceeding. Missouri requires a full stop whenever a driver sees a stop sign. The stop is not optional when the intersection appears empty, and merely reducing speed does not satisfy the rule. A driver should then check for crossing vehicles and pedestrians before moving again. The practical cue is the red, eight-sided sign: bring the vehicle to a complete halt, then continue only when the crossing area is clear. This differs from a yield sign, where slowing and yielding may be enough if no conflicting traffic is present.
