OK...how many of you out there REALLY STOP for STOP signs? Or, do you sorta "roll-thru"? I must say, as I get older, I do stop more. But, I didn't always! What about you?

So your saying that I am suppose to actually stop at stop signs and red lights? Actually for the most part I do except when turning right then I do the rolling stop

If I am in a hurry, I will roll through the stop sign, but normally I will stop. It just depends on how much of a hurry I'm in at the time. I am trying to get better with it though, because I don't want to get a ticket!

Yeah...I think that's true of many folks. I'm the same way sometimes. Thanks for the post.

I have a tendency to do a rolling stop. I find myself doing that more often at blinking reds though, mostly because people behind me are impatient.

I live in a pretty crowded suburb here, and it's basically impossible not to stop at one without hitting someone.

A good question pal.I have to admit that a give a damn to these STOP signs.They are really irritating.Maybe when I grow old, I also start stopping at these STOP signs...

I always stop completely at stop signs. I wont take the chance of rolling through and hitting someone or getting a ticket.

I applaud you, lightningMD! We certainly need more drivers like that. I can't say I always do as you do myself every time. Most of the time I stop completely, but every once in a while I catch myself slipping through. Keep it up! Thanks for the post.

Years ago, we used to call that a "California Stop." I'm still not sure where that term came from so if anyone knows, please tell us. I do it sometimes if it is early in the morning and no traffic around. You have to be careful however. They do give us traffic tickets for that if they catch you.

Yep! Never heard it called that, but I'm sure many places may have their own names for it. Here on the east coast, they'll give out tickets for it too. Guess I'm in less of a 'hurry' than I used to be...I usually stop full now. Thanks for the post.
