You won't be allowed to roll through a stop sign at 30kph.
Yielding in this context, means slowing down, and going very slowly through the stop-sign, assuming its nobody else's turn to go. Every cyclist I've seen pretty much does this already if nobody is around. But the current law is that you must come to a complete stop, even if nobody is around, before going.
- ams6110 11y agoSame thing most cars do, at least where I live. If there's no cross traffic, nobody comes to a complete dead stop at a stop sign.
- mikekchar 11y agoHmmm... I admit that I rarely put my foot down if there is no traffic, so I suppose I am rolling through. If that's what's being described, then I suppose it makes some sense. I've been surprised a few times in my life and even when I thought I was going slowly enough to stop, it wasn't the case. Now, I am pretty careful at stop signs. I haven't really been able to see a good description of what "treat a stop sign as a yield sign" means in practical terms, though. "If you hit something or got hit, then you did it wrong" doesn't seem to be a great way to proceed ;-)
