BDifficulty 2/5

At a junction with no officer, traffic light or temporary sign indicating otherwise, does a STOP road marking impose the same stop-and-give-way requirement as a vertical STOP sign?

Correct answer

Yes, it requires stopping and giving way.

Yes. Stop at the stop line or, if there is none, immediately before the junction, and give way to vehicles on the road being approached. If the first stop provides insufficient visibility, stop again where you can see without endangering anyone. Having the same meaning does not remove the hierarchy between sign types when their instructions conflict.
