Road Signs

On an NWT highway or community street, a red eight-sided sign means:

Northwest Territories road sign — Come to a complete stop before the line, crosswalk, or intersection
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Come to a complete stop before the line, crosswalk, or intersection

NWT winter whiteouts often obscure lettering; the octagon shape is legible by outline alone in snow and dim light.

Why the other answers are wrong

  • A.Proceed with cautionSTOP is absolute — proceeding without a full halt is an offence under NWT Motor Vehicles Act.
  • C.Yield to cross traffic onlyYielding is weaker than STOP; the octagon demands a full stop, not just a yield.
  • D.Slow to 30 km/hThere is no speed-reduction rule associated with the STOP shape; it demands full stop.
