It's funny how people will give you shit for something on here and when you react, they accuse you of racring....

No, you wouldn't, because people do not do that EVERY BLOCK. I agree. What kind of world do you people live in that you do a rolling stop at every damn intersection. If I have the right of way, I'm going.

Yes but she'd probably still have gotten a ticket. A rolling stop is illegal for a stop sign. A rolling stop is yielding, not stopping. If the cop was that much of a hard ass considering the sign was completely blocked, I doubt doing a rolling stop would have kept the OP from getting a ticket either.
