a traffic regulation where vehicles from all directions are required to come to a complete stop at an intersection
What is an "all-way stop"?
An all-way stop is an intersection where traffic from all directions must stop before proceeding. At these intersections, each vehicle is required to come to a complete stop, regardless of which direction it is coming from. After stopping, drivers can proceed when it is safe, with the general rule being that the vehicle that arrives first goes first. If two vehicles arrive at the same time, the vehicle on the right has the right of way. All-way stops are used in areas where traffic control is needed to ensure safety and fairness at busy intersections.
Example
At an all-way stop, drivers must yield the right of way to other vehicles before proceeding through the intersection.
All-way stops are typically installed at intersections where traffic flow and safety require equal consideration for all directions.
When approaching an all-way stop, pedestrians also have the right of way, ensuring their safe passage across the street.
