“Stop”
sign and/or line are applied at intersections with restricted view.
You
must stop even if there is no traffic on the crossing road.
Your stopped position must be within one metre before the line. You comply with this by braking smoothly while approaching the line, and stopping completely as soon as the line disappears under the hood of your car.
Where “Stop” sign is not accompanied by a “Stop” line or crosswalk, you should stop at the road junction, i.e. before entering the travelled portion of the through road.
Remember
to ease the pressure off the brake pedal just before the vehicle comes to
rest to avoid a jerk, otherwise you risk to fail the driving test because
testing officers consider jerks as insufficient control of the car.
3 second stay at the “Stop” line is what testing
officer expects to see, and about the time needed for thorough check before
entering the crossing road (definite waiting time is not provisioned in ARR).
