On the other hand, I see people once a day blow the new stop sign on Hope 
street.  And I only come to that sign 2 or 4 times a day.

It is also a visibility issue.  When I'm on 2-wheels I can see over most 
vehicles and see people are trying to cross the street.  When I'm in a 
car, I frequently cannot see any pedestrians until they're in the street, 
and by then it is too late to be considerate, and my attentions focus on 
avoiding vehicular homicide indictments, not being neighborly.
