Same here. No idea what the hell this thread is about. I've never thought there were too few stop signs or too many. They have never been a problem in my life. To me this is like having a strong opinion on the thickness of a street curb or something. Weird thread.
There are places that just have way fewer stop signs. Seattle has a lot of local residential street intersections with no stop signs (or yield signs either). When I was living in Munich, same deal.
Like the boiling lobster in the pot, they are a huge problem in your life, but you don't know it because you've never experienced life without them.
Come to a country that doesn't have a single 4 way stop and instead has roundabouts (and people that know how to use them). I drive clear across town through 40+ intersections without stopping once. So does everyone else.
Are you aware which website you’re on? Having strong opinions on esoteric topics is a HN mainstay. Also as a non-American driving in the US made me think about a lot of things I wouldn’t otherwise consider. (Yes you have too many stop signs)
