It certainly does influence routing. I'd rather take the road without stop signs than the road with stop signs at every block that runs parallel. By the time you have slowed down, stopped, looked and sped up again, passing a stop sign adds at least 30 seconds to a journey - probably more, compared to if you could have just stayed at the speed limit for the whole section. | or should we remove this tag from the approved Map features and create a | proposal wiki page where a clear definition could be done ? We need a way to know where stop signs and give way (yield) signs are and which direction they face. It probably requires a relation between the node and the way they are on.
