OK, I looked it up.

Idaho.

In Idaho, bicycle riders can treat stop signs as yield signs and can treat stop lights like stop signs: http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...06#post1508106

Is anyone else aware of such laws where they live?

Makes good sense to me. It's much easier to see the whole intersection on a bike than it is in a car. Also, a bike is much less likely to cause serious injury than a car is.

Besides, don't most of us already behave this way? It seems to me that having laws on the books that are routinely ignored (because the laws don't fit real life) encourage a general attitude of disrespect for the law and a general disrespect for law enforcemment. Which in my opinion, are Very Bad Things.
