Stop sign
R1-1 / Regulatory signs
A STOP sign requires a complete stop. Yield to traffic and pedestrians before moving into the intersection. Slowing down without stopping is not enough, even when the road looks clear.

What should you do?
Stop before the marked stop line. Without a line, stop before the crosswalk; if neither is present, stop before entering the intersection where you can see approaching traffic. Continue only when it is safe.
A useful distinction
An ALL WAY plaque means every approach has a stop sign. Do not assume cross traffic must stop when that plaque is absent.
