This happened to me last Monday. It was a group of riders. The first one blew through the stop sign without stopping and nearly collided into me as I was pulling out from a complete stop. The rest of the group stopped and gave me dirty looks like it was my fault. "Hello! I stopped at my stop sign, you idiots didn't!" was what I was thinking at the time.
