Drivers Are Reminded
To Come to Complete
Stop At Intersections
Due to recent icing conditions,
coming to a complete stop at the
important Intersections has be
came more of a chore, and many
drivers are failing to do so.
Running through a stop street
or approaching such an intersec
tion without preparing to stop
completely, can and has resulted
in several local accidents.
State Traffic Regulations re
quire all vehicles, when entering
upon a state highway, to come to
a complete stop, State Trooper
Joe Rychetnik reminded motor
ists today. Highway traffic has
the right of way at all times.
The City of Nome has also de
signated Third Ave. west of Ber
ing St. as a boulevard that re
quires a full stop before enter
ing. Steadman Ave. from Front
St. north should not be entered
without a full stop.
Roy Jenkins, District Highway
Engineer, reports his department
will have a State Highway sign
team in the Nome area next
spring to survey local traffic
needs and recommend the proper
signs to be placed at intersec
tions.
State Highways in and around
the City of Nome that require a
£uli stop before entering are:
Bering St. and its continuation
of Dexter Road; Front Street
from King Island Village to the
Nome Airport. Traffic on Bering
St. has the right of way over
traffic entering Bering from Air
port Road. This particular inter
section has been the scene of sev
eral accidents during the past
few weeks.
