You got the correct answers. Switching off the engine is recommended in situations where you have to wait for a longer, predictable period, such as during a traffic jam or at a gated railroad crossing. This reduces unnecessary fuel consumption and minimizes environmental pollution. However, at a "Stop" sign, the stop is typically brief and not long enough to justify shutting off the engine, so you should keep it running. Remember: Turn off your engine only when longer stationary periods are expected. This practice helps both the environment and fuel efficiency.
