	Traffic - Sign & Marking
		We have found that most stop sign requests are generated by citizens with a genuine concern for traffic and pedestrian safety, who believe that the installation of stop signs would solve many traffic safety problems.
		When stop signs are installed where the need to control right-of-way is questionable, there would be an increase in traffic delay and congestion with little or no gain in safety.
		If the motorist consistently observes that the cross street traffic is light or non-existent, the stop sign's installation will be questioned by the motorist, and he/she will frequently roll through or run the stop sign, thus reducing the credibility of stop signs.

		In the United States, the stop sign is not for use as a traffic calming device.
