Motorcycle riders should use their brake lights to communicate with other road users.

Motorcyclists should flash their brake lights when slowing in any location where other drivers may not expect them to slow down.

The traffic light is about to change to green.

Stop and wait for traffic to pass.

Stop at the stop line then proceed through the intersection.

When approaching a blind intersection that is controlled by a stop line or stop sign, you must first stop where indicated. You may then edge forward and stop again just short of where the cross traffic lane meets your lane. From that position, lean your body forward and look around buildings, parked cars, or bushes to see if anything is approaching. Make sure your front wheel stays out of the crossroad while you are looking.
