You're supposed to stop for a full 3 seconds. What you described is a California roll and will get you a ticket if a cop sees you.

ive never seen anyone stop at a sign for three seconds when they have the right of way. even if you do, its only three seconds.

To whoever changed the thread title: THANK YOU!

Stoping? Really? Did you not pass grade school?
