Mastering Stop Signs
Many Learner drivers fail their licence test by making errors at Stop signs.
Here’s a guide to what the Road Users Handbook says about Stop signs:
STOP signs and lines (solid white line) are used at intersections to control traffic.
You must come to a complete stop before the Stop line, and as close as possible to it.
If there is no Stop line, stop before the intersection, as close as possible.
At Stop signs, you must give way to all vehicles approaching, entering, or passing through the intersection, whether they're turning or going straight.
Always give way to pedestrians crossing the road you're turning into.
Remember, giving way means staying stationary until it's safe to proceed.
The Stop sign in the photo was encountered in Balgownie during a Drivetime driving lesson, showing a real-life situation learners often face. Book your lesson with Drivetime Driving School to master Stop sign rules and gain confidence on the road
Both the Corrimal and Warrawong driving test routes include complex Stop sign-controlled intersections to test your competence.
At Drivetime, your instructor will guide you through the correct procedure for Stop signs, ensuring you're confident and safe.
