Now that its getting HOT-er ... I just stop for a sec at the few stop signs and take a drink of water and get back on my way..
Unless there's been a number of reports of cyclists carelessly rolling thru the stop signs, it seems like a huge waste of resources. Some states have actually made it legal to cyclists to yield at stop signs. Every intersection and road situation is different, so I'm not sure I agree it would work well in FL.
