Zulu,

The question/issue I have have about the original post is highlighted. Apparently it wasn't a stop sign.

Incidentally...

Per schedule 1 Signs of the MVA (http://www.bclaws.ca/Recon/document/...s/26_58_06.xml)

Quote:
STOP (Regulatory)
Come to a complete stop and only proceed when it is safe to do so.

YIELD (Regulatory)
Yield the right of way to all other traffic, stopping if necessary.
...so if it was a yield sign and not a stop sign I can't see how a ticket would be justified.
