Sample sign question
Road signs
At this STOP sign, where should the vehicle stop before yielding?
- After entering the intersection, if cross traffic is present
- Before the crosswalk or stop line, then yield before proceeding
- Only beside the signpost when another car approaches
- At the next driveway beyond the intersection
Answer: Before the crosswalk or stop line, then yield before proceeding. Rhode Island law requires every driver approaching a STOP sign to stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection, or at a clearly marked stop line when there is no crosswalk. After stopping, yield to traffic before moving into the intersection. Stopping beside the signpost, inside the intersection, or beyond it puts the vehicle too far forward and past the point the law names. Use the crosswalk or stop line as the visual cue, then scan for people and vehicles before proceeding.
