Illustration of the stop signs
This illustration of the stop signs shows a selection of the stop signs that are valid worldwide . If several variants of the symbol are used in a country due to the multilingualism (e.g. Canada), then these are shown one after the other with brackets. They are sorted alphabetically.
The vast majority of countries followed the design guidelines of the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic Signs of 1968 and established appropriate signs. Only a few countries have not adopted these specifications and deviate from them in parts. For example, Japan continues to use a triangle on its point or in Israel the raised hand is used instead of the lettering.
