That's pretty much standard operating procedure for most people everywhere I have ever lived. You slow down as you approach a stop sign. If you can see a quarter mile in every direction before you get to the intersection and nothing is coming, most people proceed safely without coming to a complete stop.

This is not a Druid St thing or a Hillsborough thing or a Brownwood thing. It's done pretty much every where in the world by 90% of drivers.
