Define “stop line”:
- Correct answer: A line drawn on either full or half width across the road marking a stopping point for vehicles.
- A line along the road, marking the point in which a vehicle must stop, in junctions with traffic lights only.
- A line along the road, marking the point in which a vehicle must stop, before a railway crossing
- A junction-line along the road, either full or partial, marking the point in which a vehicle must stop near a pavement
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: A line drawn on either full or half width across the road marking a stopping point for vehicles.
A stop line is a line across the width of the road or across part of its width, for example across the lanes in the direction of travel. It marks the limit before which a vehicle stops. The definition is not limited to junctions with traffic lights or to railway crossings, and a line along the road is not a stop line.
