Just so that I'm on the record here too, Tom, I also think that a stop sign works fine in some situations, but certainly not in all situations. It's simply a non-verbal warning and you use it the same way as you use a verbal warning. It's one and done. it's just another tool in our toolbox. I can't see why it can't be used on appropriate occasions, and most experienced officials readily know what those appropriate occasions are too imo.
I know that it's a personal peeve of yours, but do you really feel that a stop sign should
never be used? Or am I reading you wrong?
For the record, I certainly don't think that using a stop-sign is a game interrupter either.
