I need one of those for my neighborhood. Everyone rolls through stop signs and they get mad at me for stopping at them. Also someone on my street straight up ran over the stop sign while texting and driving. World class drivers

Where I live, some of the STOP signs have a square white sign underneath them that says "EXCEPT FOR RIGHT TURN". This is unbelievably fucked up because drivers not from the area who see only the back of the octagonal STOP sign assume that the drivers approaching the intersection from the other side are actually going to stop. Even I sometimes forget about the exception sign and get surprised by the other driver barreling on through - although not very often since drivers here so frequently fail to stop as it is.
