Stop Sign Nazi



Chicago drivers, this is a stop sign. I'm telling you this because there seems to be some confusion as to what happens when you see one of these.

Do what the sign says when your car approaches said sign. If you cannot read, perhaps memorize the color and, if you are colorblind, the shape. Then, put on the brakes! Nothing is more embarrassing than having your SUV nearly mow me down in my little Ford Focus when, clearly, I have the right of way. I was the first person at the 4-way stop, after all. That's how this works.

So, please. Utilize the stop sign and stop. They are there for a reason, and I don't want to die today.
