4 way stop on Bucknam ST

NOT A GREAT IDEA!!! Most people in this city have no idea on how to proceed at a 4 way stop. Today was the second time that I almost got hit.

Driver to the immediate right
has the right of way.

Easy peasy

You would think.

I guess I should have added the Everett specific variations....

1) Meek illegal afraid of deportation,
whose 5 year old Camry never exceeds 23mph
automatically gives up right of way to any other vehicle.

May even let 4 or 5 cars go before proceeding.

2) Tinted window equipped angry Mexican type
Demands right of way, no matter what.
Watch for the dark tinted Honda's,
Best you can hope for is a quick flash of the brakelites,
before he blows through the stop sign

3)Soccer mom in minivan.
May exhibit actions of either #1 or #2 above,
depending how late she is picking Tiffany up for her hip hop jazz class.

4)Parking enforcement in Smart Car.
Will most likely be parked, blocking the whole intersection as you approach
Placing ticket on a car parked 9.5 feet from intersection, instead of 10'.
Use extreme caution, as they will more than likely back up and try to hit you,
instead of pulling away forward.

5)Nana's drivers.
These are the easiest to deal with.
The car hat can be seen from blocks away, identifying them.
Since they don't slow down for intersections,
simply pull over out of their way,
and they will buzz by on 2 wheels.

WELL: You make some valid points !! Love them ... got any more ???

Best comment I have read on this site!

4-way stop signs are the worst! Nobody knows what to do. This city loves signs and lights. It takes forever to get anywhere in this city.
