What would be interesting is to watch an intersection and count the vehicles that come to a complete stop when there is no cross traffic in plane view. In effect treating a stop sign like a yield sign. If there is traffic or another vehicle that wouldn't get counted.

My guess would be that only 10% of all vehicles come to a complete stop even when there is no cross traffic. I'll set up a chart.

3-50]

I'll put a Y if they yield and an S if they stop.

I'll go to the intersection of Hendley and McLin later on. If I change my mind, I'll delete this.
