   I have to (for once) agree with you that STOP signs, whether   
   there for safety or speed reasons, must, in effect, slow   
   down the traffic.   
      
   At least they must be slowing down the traffic directly   
   leading up to and directly following the stop sign.   
      
   Whether they slow down the traffic on a longer stretch of   
   road would be debatable.   
      
   In the case I proposed, the entire Llewellyn section is only   
   about 1,000 feet long, with two multi-way stop signs about   
   100 feet apart, roughly in the middle.   
      
   So, that would, I would agree, tend to slow down overall   
   traffic which can visually see the road in its entirety   
   so they would know that there is a Tbone stop at both   
   ends .
