  • Stop lines show where to stop at intersections and railway crossings.
  • Don’t stop in a no stopping zone: large vehicles often need that room to turn.

Other roadway markings

Crosswalks

Crosswalk lines mark pedestrian crosswalks. Crosswalks also exist at intersections even when they are unmarked, unless a sign indicates no crossing. Stop lines indicate where vehicles must stop at intersections or railway crossings.
