A stop sign means a complete stop. You must also yield to other vehicles and stay stopped for anyone crossing in a marked or unmarked crosswalk, then go only when it is safe.

- A At least 200 feet
- B At least 500 feet
- C At least 100 feet

Oregon requires a turn signal at least 100 feet before you turn or change lanes when moving in traffic. That gives other drivers time to see and react to your plans.

Oregon defines a safe following distance as 2-4 seconds. At speeds above 30 mph you should keep 4 seconds or more, because higher speeds give you less time to spot and react to hazards.
