When approaching an intersection controlled by stop signs, where there are no lines on the road and no sidewalks, the legal stop position is:

  1. Where you can see clearly

  2. At the stop sign

  3. Before the stop sign

  4. At the edge of the travelled portion of the roadway

The correct answer is: At the edge of the travelled portion of the roadway

When approaching an intersection that is controlled by stop signs, and there are no road markings or sidewalks present, the legal stop position is at the edge of the travelled portion of the roadway. This ensures that drivers come to a complete stop before entering the intersection, allowing them to safely assess the situation and yield the right-of-way to any vehicles or pedestrians that may be approaching. Stopping at the edge of the travelled portion ensures that the driver does not unintentionally obstruct traffic on the road and maintains a safe distance from potential hazards. It's important for drivers to stop at this position to ensure they can see clearly in both directions, allowing for safe navigation through the intersection once they determine it is clear. This practice aligns with safe driving protocols and helps prevent collisions, especially in situations where visibility may be limited.
