Make sure the vehicle comes to a complete stop, i.e. all four wheels break motion without sliding or skidding. Then proceed when the conditions are safe to do so, no oncoming traffic or other hazards. There is no set time limit that I am aware of, but check your local laws. The drivers handbook would be a great place to start.

as long as your vehicle comes to a full and complete stop you're okay legally. Safetywise, it should be at least 2 seconds... more if conditions are poor.

If it's safe to proceed, you don't have to wait at all. The experienced driver is checking to his right and left as he is stopping.

There is no set time limit.
Come to a complete stop, make sure it is safe to continue through, and do so.

you must make a complete stop to make sure there is nothing coming both ways before driving off.
