Stop Sign or Rolling Stop

JayR · 07-27-2023, 10:10 AM

Being a Boston driver, many times I have had the car in front of me come to that almost-complete stop a full car length ahead of the line or sign. So, as they stop, I am actually coming to my complete stop at the proper line. We both start speeding up again at the same time (not going out of turn or cutting anyone off, just us going through.) I feel weirdly guilty as though I should stop longer or something...though, if the other guy hadn't been there, I would be doing things exactly right and lawfully.
