Stop behind the white stopping line. That line shows the boundary where you must come to a complete stop, giving you a clear view of cross traffic and pedestrians before you proceed. Staying behind it keeps you out of the intersection, prevents blocking the crosswalk, and ensures you wait in the proper position for safe and legal passage. Stopping on the crosswalk blocks pedestrians and is not allowed, stopping in the middle of the intersection creates a hazard by obstructing traffic, and stopping behind the curb isn’t a designated stopping point and can leave you in the wrong place to see and yield.
