Stop Signs

Stop signs are octagonal red traffic signs that instruct drivers to come to a complete stop at intersections. They are crucial for safety, ensuring that vehicles yield the right of way to other traffic and pedestrians. Upon reaching a stop sign, drivers should look in all directions to assess if the way is clear before proceeding. In some cases, they may need to stop even if no other cars are present, as this can help prevent accidents. Stop signs are standardized in shape and color to maintain consistency and recognition across different regions.
