    As a side note, I will offer the following observation regarding stop sign violations. The law requires that you come to a full and complete stop. Most people depress the brake pedal causing the vehicle to slow until they feel it lurch forward. Based on that lurch, they honestly and truly believe they have come to a full and complete stop when in fact, they have only slowed severely but are still rolling. They then continue on their way and are often cited for the violation. It is only when they feel the car lurch forward and then rock back that they have come to a full and complete stop.
    Which in my opinion is BS. Police will give speeders a "buffer" of generally 10 mph before they ticket, but no buffer for rocking back on a stop. Not to mentioned that tickets are getting rarer as time goes on. Speeding seems to be the main ticket written any more. Tickets for lack of registration, unsafe vehicles, failure to use headlights, wipers, turn indicators, etc. are rare. Failure to stop at a stop sign is probably second to speeding. Heck if you wish to see an incomplete stop, go to the police station and watch how many fail to wait for their vehicles to "rock back". Also look for ones that fail to use turn indicators or head lights on foggy days. Sorry to be bashing them, but only the easy tickets are being written these days.
