When I was occasionally driving commercial vehicles, we were told to put it in park and get out if necessary to wait out the people that will stop when you have a stop sign and they don't. Some were using it as an insurance scam; they stop when they don't have to and wave the guy with the stop sign across, then as soon as he starts to go, ram him. Since he had the stop sign, it goes down as his fault. Company insurance isn't willing to fight unless there's a dash cam with good enough quality and a wide enough angle to clearly show them waving him across.
