Read Frazz instead.
I'm sick to death of motorists whining about cyclists blowing stop signs. I live on a street corner with stop signs. I've observed that 90% of all the motorists do not stop at the stop sign unless there is traffic. No oncoming traffic, roll on thru! No different than the cyclists except that the motorists are irresponsibly operating machinery that is capable of delivering lethal force.

P.S. Idaho law allows cyclists to treat stop signs as yield signs.
