That is fascinating. I hate most traffic circles, and think them dangerous. But if the data is showing otherwise… BTW, sign location is usually based on an engineering study, and there are federal standards that states must be mostly compliant with - then again, some prefer to make stuff up

Incidentally, in Seattle, most residential streets don't have stop signs. "Crash data show there are far more accidents at intersections in Seattle with stop signs than without. ... Which brings us to traffic circles, an approach that reduces collisions by 97 percent." from

    Tesla should treat a stop sign according to the law. However, the computer is acting logically according to the actual situation. I would suspect that there logically should be a yield sign instead of the stop sign. In most civilized parts of the world, stop signs are _extremely_ scarce.

Ok, my opinion. I think one should look at the intent of the law requiring a full stop at a stop sign. From what I learned, that is to allow getting a full view of the intersection before proceeding. If you don't come to a full stop, you might not notice a pedestrian starting to cross. Or, if

But if you read how It works, it only does the rolling stop if no other cars are at the intersection. So the question is this. If no one is in the forest and a tree falls, does it make a sound? -Original Message- From: EV [mailto:ev-boun...@lists.evdl.org] On Behalf Of EV List Lackey via

Waymo also allows programs their vehicles to do an "alternating cross" 4-way stop pattern which is commonly used in practice, but not technically legal. (Where pairs of vehicles will cross a 4 way stop in perpendicular directions, regardless of the exact order of arrival). [As well as
