European here. You Americans sure do love stop signs! And I did a full stop. Every time. People honked and looked at me like I was a criminal weird ๐ข
Four way stops are even more exciting.
NotJustBikes have a video about the only stop sign on the Nederlands.
I have never been honked at for stopping at a posted stop sign. Maybe that's how they do it in some other regions of the US, but that's not how it works in the Pacific Northwest. Are you certain you weren't honked at for doing something else and just mis-associated it with stopping at a stop sign? Was it a 4 way stop and you didn't go when it was appropriately your time to go?
It was in LA. No one did a full stop at stop signs. Even saw police cars drive right through. Why not make one road a priority, and then have yield signs on the others? Makes more sense
