I actually made the drive in my car on Tamarind today. As I was on Tamarind approaching St. Charles, the stop sign is clearly visible from a long way away. I felt sure that I would notice something that made seeing the stop sign difficult, but I didn't. Where I used to live in NW Ohio, in some rural areas they would sometimes put LED lights around the border of the stop sign. These lights were powered by a small solar panel. It was impossible to miss the stop sign with a bunch of LED lights blinking on it. It was an easy an inexpensive solution to a dangerous problem.
