NPD CALL ACTIVITY REPORT:
The NPD regularly stop motorists for not properly stopping at posted
stop signs… this is a common violation that many people violate,
sometime because they are unsure of what a PROPER STOP is!!! The
following are basic rules for making a proper stop at posted stop signs …
• Anticipate the need to stop … be prepared to slow down as soon as you see a stop sign
• Allow adequate time and distance to stop … driving within the posted
speed limit will generally give you plenty of time to stop at posted
stop signs
• Come to a complete stop. When you come upon a stop
sign, come to a complete halt so that your vehicle has no momentum. Do
not simply slow down or pause
• More tips;
o Try to come smoothly to a stop rather than slamming on the brakes.
o If there is a solid white bar or a crosswalk painted across the
intersection, you should stop before it, so that you don’t block it.
o If there is no painted stopping line, then stop slightly before the
stop sign so that you can see in all directions at the intersection.
o If you cannot see clearly around the intersection, slowly pull
forward slightly until you can see, and come to a complete stop again.
o If another vehicle is already stopped at the stop sign in front of
you, you must first stop behind it, then again come to a complete stop
at the stop sign once that vehicle moves on.
