To obey this sign, it is enough to creep past the stop line at the slowest possible speed without fully stopping.
この標識に従うときは、停止線の直前で、完全には止まらずに最も遅い速度で通過すればよい。
This statement is FALSE
Explanation
False. The "stop" sign requires you to come to a full halt just before the stop line, or just before the intersection where there is no line. Slowing down is not enough.
