For driving straight ahead approach the “Stop” line with the right side of your car just left of the middle of the road. Your stopped position must be within one metre before the line. You comply with this by braking smoothly while approaching the line, and stopping completely as soon as the line disappears under the hood of your car.
Where “Stop” sign is not accompanied by a “Stop” line or crosswalk, you should stop at the road junction, i.e. before entering the travelled portion of the through road.
Remember
to ease the pressure off the brake pedal just before the vehicle comes to
rest to avoid a jerk, otherwise you risk to fail the driving test because
testing officers consider jerks as insufficient control of the car.
3 second stay at the “Stop”
line is what the testing officer expects to see, and about the time needed
for thorough check before crossing the road (definite waiting time is not
provisioned in ARR).
