I do come to a complete stop at stop signs. I started meticulously obeying every law when I got fed up with people complaining about cyclists not meticulously obeying every law.
Let me tell you, people get really irritated when you follow every law, because it forces THEM to in some cases, and drivers do NOT want to follow the law. After years of observation, I realized that a fairly reliable method of telling if a driver is breaking a law is to look at the tires. If they're turning, he's probably breaking a law. If they're NOT turning, then he only MIGHT be breaking a law.
