Easy peasy.
I realize that's not how it's done at the villages. But however it's supposed to be done at the villages clearly isn't working, because if it were, you wouldn't have so many threads with so many hundreds of posts about how everyone is doing it wrong and how they see accidents daily/weekly etc.
We have stop signs where I live, and if we have a fender-bender during a bad ice storm, it's news.

Most of our issues are with those that are here part time.....Goldwingnut did a drone shot some months back and the flow worked. I understand those that have limited experience have trouble but suspect they get better at it the longer they are here. As many of us have learned, just expect the unexpected. Also, you don't need to stop before entering, the law says Yield, not stop. Again, I understand the fear, and experience helps overcome that.
