aka a "Rolling Stop", basically, we're supposed to stop for 3 seconds before going through the intersection..

so instead of stopping completely, you slow to a crawl, check for cops/traffic, and then keep going without stopping.

In California the term is "California Rolling Stop." It refers to driving an automobile and while approaching an intersection with a stop sign, not a a traffic light, never fully stopping the vehicle as required by law before continuing through the intersection with the car.

edit: yeah what krim said ^^

Here it's called an american stop. I don't know why. :confused:

Yes, both are legal, but they're cheaper in Cuba. $12 for a 40oz. Stupid taxes. :grumble:

I think I still have one or two cuban cigars somewhere. They must be too dry to smoke though. :puppydog:

You can rehydrate them? Cool! I thought they were done for.
Thanks! :woot:
