Section 9 of chapter 89 of the General Laws, as appearing in the 1984 Official Edition, is hereby amended by inserting after the fourth paragraph the following paragraph:-

The driver of a motor vehicle shall not cross or enter an intersection, which it is unable to proceed through, without stopping and thereby blocking vehicles from travelling in a free direction.
