TRAFFIC CONTROL SIGNAL, THE DRIVER OF A VEHICLE
APPROACHING A STOP SIGN AT AN INTERSECTION SHALL STOP AT
THE NEAR SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION:
(1) AT A CLEARLY MARKED STOPLINE;
(2) IF THERE IS NO CLEARLY MARKED STOP LINE,
BEFORE ENTERING ANY CROSSWALK; OR
(3) IF THERE IS NO CROSSWALK, AT THE NEAREST
POINT BEFORE ENTERING THE INTERSECTION THAT GIVES THE
DRIVER A VIEW OF TRAFFIC APPROACHING ON THE INTERSECTING
ROADWAY.
(B) YIELD SIGNS.
THE DRIVER OF A VEHICLE APPROACHING A YIELD SIGN AT
AN INTERSECTION, IF REQUIRED FOR SAFETY TO STOP, SHALL
STOP AT THE NEAR SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION:
(1) AT A CLEARLY MARKED STOP LINE;
(2) IF THERE IS NO CLEARLY MARKED STOP LINE,
BEFORE ENTERING ANY CROSSWALK; OR
(3) IF THERE IS NO CROSSWALK, AT THE NEAREST
POINT BEFORE ENTERING THE INTERSECTION THAT GIVES THE
DRIVER A VIEW OF TRAFFIC APPROACHING ON THE INTERSECTING
ROADWAY.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §11-705.2.
The present, somewhat illogical priority lists
of required stopping points are revised to
conform to those specified in §21—202(d) of
this title, as to stopping on a steady red
light, and §21-204(b) of this title, as to
stopping on a flashing red. There would
appear to be no reason why the rules of
stopping should not be identical in each of
these cases.
The only other changes are in style.
As to right-of-way rules, see Subtitle 4 of
this title and, in particular, §21-403.
21-703. LIVESTOCK CROSSINGS.
(A) POSTING OF LIVESTOCK CROSSING SIGN.
AT THE REQUEST OF ANY FARMER WHOSE LAND IS DIVIDED
BY A HIGHWAY AND WHO REGULARLY DRIVES LIVESTOCK ACROSS
THE HIGHWAY, THE STATE HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION MAY PLACE A
SIGN AT APPROXIMATELY 500 FEET FROM EACH SIDE OF THE
CROSSING, GIVING NOTICE OF THE PRESENCE OF THE CROSSING.
