A. The driver of a vehicle shall stop in obedience to a "Stop" sign or yield in compliance with a "Yield" sign, as required in subsections B and C of this section, and shall proceed cautiously yielding to vehicles not so obligated to stop or yield and which are within the intersection or approaching so closely as to constitute an immediate hazard during the time the driver is moving across or within the intersection. If the driver is involved in a collision with a vehicle in the intersection, after driving past a "Stop" or "Yield" sign, the collision shall be deemed prima facie evidence of the driver's failure to yield right of way.
B. Every driver of a vehicle approaching a "Stop" intersection indicated by a "Stop" sign shall stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, in the event there is no crosswalk, shall stop at a clearly marked stop line, but 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.
C. The driver of a vehicle approaching a "Yield" sign if required for safety to stop, shall stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, in the event there is no crosswalk, at a clearly marked stop line, but if none, then at the point nearest the intersecting roadway where the driver has a view of approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway.
