You should always look for a yield sign, or oncoming traffic.
Stop completely before entering the crosswalk or intersection. Then, proceed when you can do so safely. Basically, treat the intersection as if there are stop signs at each corner of the intersection.
Depends how fast the car is going, and how wide the intersection is. Usually not long, but long enough to get hit by something else if you don't check first before entering.
You come to a complete stop at the limit line or before entering the crosswalk/intersection of that specific red stop sign.
Drivers should come to a complete stop at a two-way stop sign intersection when they reach the stop line or before entering the intersection, and yield the right of way to any vehicles that arrived first or are already in the intersection.
The rules for a stop sign are that you must come to a full stop before entering the intersection, give right-of-way to any other traffic, and then proceed only when the way is clear. If there is a stop line, you must stop before that line. If you cannot see oncoming traffic from that stop line, then you must also stop prior to entering the intersection.
"Have you finished checking in before entering?"
Stop completely before entering the crosswalk or intersection, then proceed when you can do so safely. Vehicles on the intersecting road may not have to stop.
When the intersection is clear and your direction has right of way.
[21453. (a) A driver facing a steady circular red signal alone shall stop at a marked limit line, but if none, before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, if none, then before entering the intersection, and shall remain stopped until an indication to proceed is shown, except as provided in subdivision.]
VC 21453 (a) says you have to stop at a red light. Here's the actual text: == 21453. (a) A driver facing a steady circular red signal alone shall stop at a marked limit line, but if none, before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, if none, then before entering the intersection, and shall remain stopped until an indication to proceed is shown, except as provided in subdivision (b).
When two cars reach an uncontrolled intersection at about the same time, drivers should yield to the vehicle on their right. This means allowing the car on the right to proceed first before entering the intersection. It is important to exercise caution and communicate with other drivers to avoid accidents.
The answer depends on state law. In Oregon and Washington you must stop before entering a roadway from a private drive or alley.
