The streets and parts of streets of the City designated by law
as through streets are hereby declared to be through streets. The
driver of a vehicle shall stop at the entrance to a through street
and shall yield the right-of-way to other vehicles which have entered
the intersection or which are approaching so close on a through street
as to constitute an immediate hazard unless directed otherwise by
a traffic officer or a traffic-control signal. (See Schedule A.[1])

Editor's Note: Schedule A is included as an attachment to this chapter.
It shall be unlawful to operate any vehicle on any streets or
alleys designated as one-way streets or alleys by law, in any direction
other than that so designated.
A.
Except when directed to proceed by a police officer or traffic-control
signal, every driver of a vehicle approaching a stop intersection
indicated by a stop sign 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 before entering the intersection.
B.
After having stopped, the driver shall yield the right-of-way to
any vehicle which has entered the intersection from another roadway
or which is approaching so closely on the roadway as to constitute
immediate hazard during the time when the driver is moving across
or within the intersection, but said driver, having so yielded, may
proceed at such time as a safe interval occurs. (See Schedule A.[1])

all intersections.
