Abstract:

The Stop sign is one of the most widely used of all traffic control devices. Its message is brief and to the point. The sign is inexpensive in comparison with traffic signals, and it serves an important purpose when used properly. The object of this report is to develop numerical standards for some of the conditions under which Stop signs should be used. Of the three classes into which traffic signs are commonly divided - regulatory, warning, and guide - the Stop sign is regulatory. It imposes a definite legal obligation on every driver who approaches it. The exact legal meaning of the sign varies from one jurisdiction to another, but the general idea is always that each driver approaching the sign must bring his car to a complete stop, and must not proceed until to do so is safe.
