Traffic Safety Service clarifies rules on stopping at stop line due to traffic jam
The Road Traffic Safety Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Uzbekistan has explained what drivers should do if they stop at a stop line due to a traffic jam when traffic lights change.
According to the agency, if a driver approaches an intersection on a green light but is forced to stop at the stop line due to a traffic jam ahead, they must not continue moving when the red light comes on. In such a situation, they must remain stationary.
The Road Traffic Safety Service also clarified that hitting or crossing the stop line is not equated to entering the intersection itself or the intersection of roadways.
