Which road-marking category includes the word “STOP” painted on the carriageway, as distinct from the stop line?

Correct answer

Horizontal road marking

It is a horizontal traffic signal. The “STOP” inscription means a compulsory stop. Distinguish it from the continuous stop line, a transverse marking. The obligation applies to that lane when the horizontal signal is in a lane bounded by longitudinal markings.
