When there is no sign marking a turn, you should first Stop.

• A. Stop
• B. Stop and Yield
• C. Turn
• D. Proceed

Answer: (A)

In an intersection with no sign directing a turn, you must stop first to look for any approaching traffic and pedestrians. Stopping gives you a clear moment to gauge gaps in traffic and determine who has the right of way before you begin the turn. Without stopping, you risk turning into vehicles that may be coming from the sides, or into pedestrians crossing.

So the best action is to stop first, then yield to traffic and proceed when it’s safe. Turning or proceeding without stopping would ignore the need to check for potential conflicts, which is unsafe in an uncontrolled intersection.
