I absolutely hate it when people wait for the last second to stop at a stop sign. For instance I'll be driving along peacefully on a road when I see someone pull up to a stop sign so quickly I get nervous and don't fully expect them to stop in time. I've already been t-boned once this year and I don't want it to happen again. No one could be in that much of a hurry to have to brake at the last second. Just because you don't car about your car doesn't mean everyone else doesn't. These people shouldn't have that much faith in there brakes. Okay I understand if you need to inch out to check for cars if there is something in the way. But if you begin to stop five feet after the stop bar then there's a problem. The stop bar is there for a reason. If everyone would just stop before the stop bar look both ways making sure it is clear and proceeding the world would be a better place. That is all for now.

Agree. I see those people who approach a stop sign at really high speed and think, "Is that A-hole going to stop?" Scares the crap out of you. Especially when I am on my motorcycle.

As someone who has also been t-boned, by someone who ran a stop sign as a matter of fact, I definitely agree 100%.

I had an old Greek man run a stop sign in front of me. I T-Boned him but it was his fault. Still weary of them also.

There's a stop sign near my house that EVERYONE runs and it pisses me off. At night, I flash when I approach the sign.

I dislike stop signs too. Lady ran one and hit me. Herself and her passenger apologized for running the sign and hitting me, then told the cop I hit them...

Holy crap! That poor tC! :(

I remembered when someone backed into my car and the front driver side on the bumper looked just like that....I hate other drivers from that point on.

Best part? This November will be three years since the accident and the two insurance companies haven't reached a decision. I'd like to get my deductible back at some point... Officer on scene didn't write anything on the accident report other than there was a traffic at this intersection between these two people. So for almost three years the two insurance agencies have been fighting it out between each other.

Well that's retarded. Good thing my scion got taken care of after that lady backed into my car. I think it's a good idea to start having a dashcam or something. I've been meaning to get one just for that purpose...insurance. Are you on Scionlife?

Yepp. TheWyzeMan on both ScionLife and on CStC. Hardly post though; I just check the classifieds regularly.

I hardly post as well. Cause I know some smartass will just say..."why didn't you research it?" or "you didn't look hard enough." or "it's already here on the forums, search it yourself." Forums are really pointless now for asking technical questions. All I'm doing is just like you, checking the classified.
