"One day I ache"....not today!
"One day I'm gone"....not today....."One day I ache"......not today!
I was on my way home from work today when I came to a 4 way intersection with a stop sign each 'way'. The car coming from my right either didn't see his stop sign or chose to ignore it. If he hadn't cut hard right at the last second, I probably would have T boned him and it would not have been a Youpidou day! I had to mute a couple of segments. https://drive.google.com/file/d/15af...ew?usp=sharing Attachment 2834 |
I had never seen an intersection with 4 stops. How do you know who has the right of way?

These days on top of being a responsible driver, you have to be on the lookout for drivers like this :noway:

I wonder why such "4 way stops" exist at all. If it is expensive to put a traffic light there, then maybe it would be better to assign a primary and a secondary road placing yield signs on the latter.

This is a Parkway on a reservation in the city of Boston and for that reason, I think there is a reluctance to put traffic lights here, but as the city grows, traffic has grown worse and worse and I'm sure they will have to put a traffic light there in the near future.
There are people like this who will try and zip right through without stopping. Being aware of that, I saw this guy coming and instead of making the kind of stop I should have made, I did a very quick stop and go and it surprised the hell out of this guy. Even though there's no shortage of guys who run these stop signs, the biggest problem is people who are talking on their phones or texting because when traffic is heavy, you'll have 3 or 4 cars coming up at roughly the same time and it's important you keep track of who got there first and if someone doesn't go when it's their turn to go because they are communicating with someone else, it messes everyone else up. |
