From Scott Hurst. Why the Idaho Stop is Good for Cyclists.

This is a great article.  Plus what a relief for people from Idaho to have something they can take real pride in. The ‘Idaho Stop” law has been in effect since 1982. Basically, a cyclist treats a stop sign like a yield sign and a stop light like a stop sign. There was a significant attempt to repeal this law a few years ago but the law survived, likely to a vigorous letter writing campaign by cyclists.
