Truth. Many years ago, OK MANY MANY years ago, I took a course in statistics. You were supposed to ask 100 people a question with a yes or no answer. I decided to save time and count the number of people out of 100 that came to a full stop at a stop sign. I had to fudge my numbers. Not one person out of 200 came to a full stop.

A four way stop sign is particularly dangerous. Who goes next? Likely four DIFFERENT opinions.

Chapter 316 Section 123 - 2011 Florida Statutes - The Florida Senate.

(b) At a four-way stop intersection, the driver of the first vehicle to stop at the intersection shall be the first to proceed.

If two or more vehicles reach the four-way stop intersection at the same time, the driver of the vehicle on the left shall yield the right-of-way to the vehicle on the right.
