If you don't like the law, then work to change it legally--not just interept it anyway you chose. Until the law is changed, you are wrong if you do not stop at the stop signs--you, me or whoever. You can try to rationalize it , but it doesn't make you right. Change the law or obey it, or at the very least-don't try to justify it when you don't obey it

: I think we all sometimes do rolling stops , exceed the speed limit, etc..... but here is the point... When we do these things ( no matter our logic or reasoning) IT IS AGAINST THE LAW. If we get CAUGHT we must pay the penalty because we were wrong. We broke the law. A police officer is not there to judge whether what you did might have worked out ok due to circumstances. The officer can only judge if what you did was within or without the perimeters of the law. It is not really a subjective call for that officer.
