But won't. Or probably won't. Unless it's a speed trap. And if they do, they're not in the wrong to do so, but it doesn't mean you were 100% in the wrong to slow down to 10% instead of stopping. So it doesn't necessarily mean you need to change your behaviour, except to be wary of speed traps. And in case of danger, being able to stop is important, but there could be situations where slowing down is safer than jamming the breaks. And you might be able to explain that to the cop, or the cop might see what happened and give you a pass.
Point is: situations can be complicated and nuanced, and AI is still very bad at this kind of social thinking. Personally I've come to the opinion that AI will never really be good at this kind of thing until it actually lives in and participates in society, whatever that may mean.

Then the AI can easily follow the policy. Not that you need anything anywhere close to AI to comprehend a stop sign braking policy.
