I see it all the time, the person who has the right of way doesn't understand the rules.
I have a scenerio for you....

The driver at 6:00 is the next one to proceed thru the 4 way stop intersection. My husband seems to feel the driver at 12:00 should go at the same time if both are proceeding straight through the intersection (even though it is not 12:00's turn to go). I don't know if I'm on board with that one. I know this moves the traffic along quicker but I'm not sure if this is correct.
