"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 Last edited by Scruffydog777; 10-08-2019 at 10:47 PM.. |

I had never seen an intersection with 4 stops. How do you know who has the right of way?

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.

Usually the intersections with 4 way stops are not too busy, but busy enough that the wait could be very long for the people who have to yield if one road always had the right of way. However, a busy intersection with a 4 way stop can get very backed up. Once an intersection starts getting heavier traffic, they often put in a light. In my town, they are putting a lot of roundabouts in intersections that previously had only stop signs. I think that will help a lot with traffic flow.

Roundabouts work pretty well for this kind of intersections

I agree! Also, they make it much less likely that an accident will be a deadly, head on crash. It can take people awhile to get used to them, though!
