the intersection or which are approaching so close on a through street
as to constitute an immediate hazard, unless directed otherwise by
the traffic officer. See Schedule A for applicable through and stop
streets.[1]

[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General
Provisions, Art. I)]
The driver of a vehicle shall stop in obedience to a stop sign
at an intersection where a stop sign is erected pursuant to ordinance
at one or more entrances thereto, at a clearly marked stop line, but
if none, before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection,
or if none, then at the point nearest the intersecting roadway where
the driver has a view of approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway
before entering the intersection, and shall proceed cautiously, yielding
to the vehicles not so obliged to stop which are within the intersection
or approaching so close as to constitute an immediate hazard during
the time when the driver is moving across or within the intersection,
unless traffic at such intersection is controlled by a police officer
on duty, in which event the directions of the police officer shall
be complied with. See Schedule A for designated stop intersections.[1] (See 625 ILCS 5/11-302; 625 ILCS 5/11-904.)

Editor's Note: Schedule A is included as an attachment to this chapter.
The driver of a vehicle approaching a yield sign, in obedience
to such sign, shall slow down to a speed reasonable for the existing
conditions, and if required for safety to stop, shall stop at a clearly
marked stop line, but if none, before entering the crosswalk on the
near side of the intersection, or if none, then at the point nearest
the intersecting roadway where the driver has a view of approaching
traffic on the intersecting roadway. After slowing or stopping, the
driver shall yield the right-of-way to any vehicle in the intersection
or approaching on another roadway so closely as to constitute an immediate
hazard during the time such driver is moving across or within the
intersection. (See Schedule C.[1]) (625 ILCS 5/11-904)
