At an intersection with this sign, I had checked that both directions were clear, so I passed through slowly without stopping.
この標識のある交差点で、左右の安全が確認できたので、止まらずに徐行だけで通過した。
This statement is FALSE
Explanation
Wrong. At a stop sign you must come to a complete stop whether or not the way looks clear. Slowing down is not enough.
