HPD Corner
Have you ever watched a vehicle approach an intersection with a stop sign, and sarcastically made the comment, “Nice stop,” when that party didn’t quite come to a stop? Well, we all need to pay more attention when at stop signs, as the law requires that when you stop, there must be complete cessation of movement. That means not only must your wheels completely stop going around, but even the bumpers on your vehicle cannot be rocking, which is what happens when you abruptly stop.
