Chapter 11.20 — STOP SIGNS

• For statutory provisions authorizing local authorities to place and maintain traffic-control devices as required by statute or as necessary to implement statutes or local ordinances, see Veh. Code § 21351; for provisions generally regarding traffic signs, signals, and markings, see Veh. Code § 21350 et seq.

It is the express purpose of the ordinance codified in this chapter to consolidate in one ordinance all presently or heretofore designated stop intersections where stops are required at certain approaches thereto as hereinafter defined and to provide a means for incorporating all the stop intersections that may hereafter be so designated or declared.

(Ord. 467, § 1, 1970)

A. The driver of any vehicle upon approaching the entrance of any of the following intersections sign-posted with a stop sign shall stop:

1. At a limit line, if marked, otherwise before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection, or, if not marked, then before entering the intersection; or,
2. At any point within the intersection as required by a stop sign.

B. After such stop, the driver shall yield the right-of-way to other vehicles on that part of any street protected by any stop sign which are so close as to constitute an immediate hazard, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way to such approaching vehicles until such time as he can proceed with reasonable safety.
