I think they should turn them off (4 way stop) during slow traffic. My area it would be Sunday-Thursday start at 10 pm - 630 am Monday- Friday morning.

As always, very interesting subject, Akima.
It takes non-Floridian civilized drivers to achieve such harmony without regulating lights. Down here, even 4-way stop signs are potentially lethal for motorcyclists as each converging driver wants to cross at once, regardless conditions.

I actually count myself relatively lucky over here. I think our roads are pretty good. Lots of roundabouts and very, very few stop signs. Unfortunately though there seems to be a growing number of traffic lights.
