Here's one for thought. Way back after watching the foreman-holyfield fight at a friend's, i was driving home in the dark. At a familiar 4 way stop sign i did a california roll with other no car in sight. I slowed to almost a stop, looked, and continued. Police light comes on they pull me over and give me a ticket. They were hiding in the dark for a pigeon and found one. Unfair? Well yeah pretty much chicken sh-- to me. If i saw cars at the other stop signs i wait my turn. I was being safe, but technically i was still at fault.

once read a story where the county had recently installed traffic cameras to catch speeders and red light violators. Since it was a new system the bugs had not been ironed fully out. Lo and behold one person after 90 days started to receive on a daily basis for 90 days red light plus speeding tickets assigned to their car registration. the red light tickets were for rolling stops at the signs
