Got in a Mexican stand off at a four way stop signs.
4 of us got there pretty much the same time. 4 of us sitting there looking at each other. 4 of us inching forward. 1 of us finally stuck his head out the car and said "I'll wait...you go first".
Most stupid Road Authority initiative I have ever seen in relation to road signs. What kind of a genius dreamed that one up.
Surely it's not rocket science to figure out which of the cross roads has the least traffic. I know at this intersection, one is a medium density road and the other smaller residental access. Gee, that was hard.
I think perhaps it time to put new bottoms in seats. Then again, it may be a case of better the devil you know.
Cheers, Maria

my goodness, perhaps you could ask the traffic authority if they have any give way signs and if so could they send you two on the condition that they are put on the correct roads.
