Certainly there are people that willfully ignore them which is a big problem. There also alot who actually do not understand stop signs. 10% of the time there is at least one person seemingly mystified on how to proceed through a stop sign. And 50% of the time a lane beside me ends I have to be careful not to get sideswiped.

These two groups of idots are why protected bike and pedestrian lanes are essential and why roundabouts will be difficult.

Those people that blow through stop signs and lights will do so in roundabouts and then blame the roundabouts for thier idiocy. Then other idots will nod along saying its the roundabouts fault.

Perhaps with an adjustment period it can work but any politician greenlighting one will get attacked and once there are accidents any politician still supporting them will be attacked.

The idiots are loud and sway way too much politicians, like gestures vaguely at current USA federal administration
