Depending on state law, the cop may have been correct. Some states allow two cars that are stopped at a stop sign to proceed together (i.e., the second car does not need to stop a second time when they reach that stop sign), but those states are the exception. I have no clue if NC is one of those states.

If the SUV was at (or in front of) the stop sign, and you went when they did, then you didn't technically stop at the sign.

The SUV should have been given a ticket for having stopped improperly and to pull you over seems a bit petty.

In NC law states car must stop at white line if present. If no white line is present one must stop at physical stop sign. There is no white line at this intersection, I was right at the stop sign when I stopped. Sat there for 13 seconds. CUV rear bumper was about 6-8' past stop sign.

Was I supposed to extra stop? Pull forward past the stop sign and stop again? Pull almost into the intersection like the dimwit in front of me and stop?

I can guarantee you that if there wasn't traffic coming from the CUV's left he would have rolled right through the stop sign. This right turn probably about 80% of people never stop for, a lot of people only slow down enough to not wind up in the opposite lane.

I'm actually pleasantly happy a cop was actually watching this problem intersection. Pretty pissed she picked one of the very few drivers that actually stops there.

CSB: Tonight I got honked at by a taxi 1.5 seconds after the light turned green. I'm manual, so I don't get moving fast enough for impatient automatics. I also don't like to come to a 100% complete stop at stop signs. AITA?

I hate it when people are impatient in my manual. I absolutely loathe people that ride my bumper when I'm trying to get going at a red light. Gearing is short, so I have to shift 4 times to get up to 35/40mph without ripping through rev range.

Take first gear to 5k rpm, problem solved.

2nd will take you to almost 70mph in the mk7 😉

I memorize the light sequence of every light I hit regularly.

If someone has irritated me by dragging ass and not making the yellow on the previous sequence I'll honk the horn at them the instant the light turns green again.
ive memorized most of the yellow lengths around me and it annoys the hell out of me when someone stops short lmao
