honestly, how many of you actually come to a complete stop for a parking lot stop sign late at night when there are only a few parked cars around?
the part that bugs me is that these guys routinely drive on the sidewalks, don't use their turn signals, and FAIL TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AT THE PARKING LOT STOP SIGNS!!
anyway, just thought I'd come out of hiding and share.

Toby,
Good to see you around. I'd fight the sucker. In Indiana (where I work, not live), since the parking lot is private property, the stop signs they erect aren't really "legal." It'd be like putting a stopsign in your driveway. Of course, if the property is owned by the city, you might have no recourse. You might check applicable law in your state.
