We almost got creamed today by a car and I'm not sure if we'd have been at fault if he'd hit us...as we were already in process of turning in the road. He acted as if it was but wonder how he'd have felt if he'd have hit us??!!
IMO the car would be at fault. if you were in the intersection pass your stop sign the car also has stop sign. the Stop sign is not for stopping at the gate if for stopping at the intersection after the gate. When something in the intersection the car behind the stop sign does not have the right a way whether it's person, cart, or camel.

IMO the problem with stop signs someone coming up to stop sign actually have to stop before their inline to proceed (Even with or behind the stop sign or the white line painted on the street). if someone just rolls through it confesses others that's already stopped and inline.
