Every motorist approaching an intersection entrance controlled by a “STOP” sign must come to a full stop and yield the right-of-way before proceeding.

Is it legal to cross an intersection without an arrow?
If there is no arrow or if it legal to cross without an arrow, be aware of all oncoming traffic before making a turn. Never hang in the center of the intersection to wait to make a turn. If the traffic lights are not functioning, treat them the way you would treat an intersection with stop signs. Know who has the right of way.
When to yield to traffic at an intersection?
You are at a “T” intersection —yield to traffic on the through road. Returning to the road after the car has been parked. You arrive at stop sign at the same time as another vehicle. Yield to the vehicle on your right. Another vehicle reaches an intersection first. You’re making a turn and another vehicle is going straight.
