[quote=Anonymous]I just moved out of a house like this. We were basically at the top of a 3-way stop. It never occurred to me that someone would drive into our house (but they couldn't have, because our yard was very steep). What did bother me was the noise -- cars slow down doing their stupid rolling stop thing (it seems like almost no one actually stops), then rev up and drive off. Lots of cars play loud music, and you get more than the average dose of that as well as they slow down at the intersection. But my street was a metro cut through, so more than an average amount of traffic. I do know of two neighbors right by me who moved because of it -- one because they were worried about their small children and had safety concerns, and one because they just grew to really hate the noise/traffic. But I don't think it would have been as big of a deal if my street weren't a metro traffic cut through. I can confidently say I wouldn't buy a house at an intersection like that again. But when we bought that house, I don't think we gave the fact that it was on top of a 3-way stop a second thought. [/quote]
