Does this dashed line in this situation indicate a place to stop because of the "stop" sign?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
Before the junction there is sign B-20 "STOP" and a pedestrian crossing, and on the roadway, apart from the thick solid line, you can also see a broken line made up of rectangles. Such a line is the give-way line P-14 (a conditional stop line). It is painted where stopping is only sometimes necessary: before a pedestrian crossing, before traffic lights, at the entries of roads of equal status. It has nothing to do with the STOP sign.
The place to stop because of sign B-20 is marked only by the mandatory stop line P-12, that is the thick solid line, which is also visible in the video. It is easy to remember: STOP always means a solid line, because stopping is unconditional; broken lines (made of rectangles or triangles) mean conditional stopping - only when you have to give way to someone.
