I believe it. Cyclists here are not required to stop for stop signs. Also, most cars just slow down when the intersection is empty.

Not where I live. Also how would that make sense? It’s a four-way intersection of car traffic if you blow through it at the wrong time you die.

You may be confusing "stopping" and "slowing down". You can do the second without the first.

Also illegal. You proved my point.

I just offered an option between stopping and blowing through, which is less likely to kill you.
