Why is there no country where you have more terminating-road-priority intersections as opposed to continuing-road-priority intersections?
Example of terminating road priority: Road A terminates at an intersection with Road B. Road B has to yield to vehicles turning onto Road B (especially cross-lane turns)
Is it not better to have shorter stops as opposed to longer stops? Usually the terminating road would not have any cars on it, so the continuing road would run as usual, but in the event that the terminating road does have a car, it should be able to safely access the continuing road without stopping
What you’re suggesting would require a stop light + sensors to be done safely. That costs much more than just putting up a stop sign on the road that is normally empty.
What would happen if a yield sign were put on a 2-lane continuing road (1 lane per direction)
