re: Once you stop at a stop sign are you free to do whatever afterwards?

On a Sunday morning , this mom was letting her kid drive the Beamer . We’re at a stop sign turning right onto a toll road. No one within miles . The kid starts and stops 3 times to check for oncoming cars . I bumped them the third time . Mom freaks and gets out then unloads on me . I told her no cars have been coming since we’ve been at the stop sign and he’s cause the accident. She called the cops . He was cool and didn’t ticket me .

I know a yield sign a slightly different but I was in an accident where we were stopped at a merge onto a road at a yield sign. Car in front of me decided to go. I look back to make sure I was clear from traffic and decided to go as well. I started moving forward while checking traffic (my mistake for not turning around before moving) and I rear ended the car in front of me who just decided after initiating his merge that he wanted to stop dead in the street. Happened in Orleans Parish so we waited over an hour for cops and no one showed up. Exchanged information and both left. His insurance company said it was 100% my fault because "there is no law saying you can't stop once you start moving but there is a law saying you can't rear end someone."

Yeah man, common knowledge. You just stop once and then you can do anything. Set up a frickin bar b que right in the middle of that bitch. If anyone gets pissed just point to the sign with the tongs.

I have a hard time believing that driver's ed is much better than when we had it, and it was a joke for us.

We watched a couple of videos. One was hilarious bloopers of all the things you souldn't do and the other was gruesome accidents.
