   I'm not sure where you're going with this query.   
      
   I was just explaining "why" the STOP sign is a distinctive   
   size, height above the ground, and shape.   
      
   That, plus the color, applies to the driver who is facing the   
   STOP sign; but the distinctive shape also means something to   
   the driver who is seeing the sign from a side or opposing road.   
      
   I think that's pretty logical, which, for a law, is beauty.
