Have you ever watched a vehicle approach an intersection with a stop sign and sarcastically make the comment “Nice stop,” when that party didn’t come to a complete stop?
Well, we all need to pay more attention to stop signs, as the law requires that when you stop, there must be a complete cessation of movement. FYI: That means not only must your wheels completely stop going around, but even the bumpers on your vehicle cannot be rocking, which is what happens when you abruptly stop.
