- shijie 9y agoHave any data to back that up?
- cm2012 9y ago70% of accidents near stop sign intersections are from stop sign violations: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14733981 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14733981 Other sources will show 3000+ deaths per year from stop sign violations.
- zeendo 9y agoThe study doesn't differentiate between blowing through a stop sign and a rolling stop. You're drawing the conclusion you want, not what the data says.
