Motorcycle · Motorcycle intersections
How should a motorcyclist handle a blind intersection that has a stop line?
Correct answer: Stop at the line first, then edge ahead for a clearer view of cross traffic.
Answer options
- ARoll past the stop line without stopping so you can see around obstructions
- BStop at the line, then ride across the intersection without pausing again
- CStop at the line first, then edge ahead for a clearer view of cross traffic Correct
Why
When buildings, hedges or parked vehicles block your view, first come to a complete stop at the stop line. Then ease ahead a little at a time while looking both ways, and enter only once you can clearly see approaching traffic.
