OOhhh, you hit one of my biggest peeves. "Courtesy". Way back when we started driving, they created the right of way rules so that traffic would keep flowing. It absolutely kills me when I am approaching a four way stop, I am still moving, and there is one other vehicle already stopped. Instead of just going, they sit there and wait until I come to a complete stop. Either they don't think I am going to stop (which I doubt, cause I approach slowly, downshifting) or they are waiting for me to wave them through. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY DUMBASS!!! GO ALREADY! Why do you think when I am approaching the same intersection and estimate that it is going to be a "tie" between me and one or more cars I stop a few feet short of the line so I will be the first to go?!?
