Only after entering the intersection and proceeding beyond any marked stop line, near-side crosswalk, and conflict area
At any convenient point beyond the crosswalk
At the stop line; if none, before the near crosswalk; if none, before the intersection✓Correct answer
Always exactly one vehicle length before the signal pole
Explanation
The order is the marked stop line; if none, before the near-side crosswalk; if neither exists, before entering the intersection. This question addresses the indication's federal standard meaning and does not add a State-law penalty or exception.
