Stopsign at intersection of Wilke and Nichols. If you don't wait 5 or 6 seconds, they claim you didn't stop, even when turning right.

Comment (9/2006): not stopping so you have pole position is what gets you in trouble. I will continue to sit with dash cam on you every chance I get, and you will get tickets.

Comment (9/2006): Get real, I see people blowing this off every single day, and endangering the kids in the area. 5 or 6 Seconds in ridiculous, come to a complete stop and move on thats the law.

Comment (10/2006): My son and I have both gotten a ticket here within the last year... both well deserved, because he was in a hurry to get to work, and I was on auto-pilot coming home. In both cases, there were no other cars within two blocks of the intersection, but there is no allowance for a "rolling stop." This will be a great revenue-generator for Cook County until all the drivers "straighten up and fly right."

Comment (01/2008): Watch out if you have 4 passengers in the car, cops love to pull uturns and tail all the way down wilke because they have nothing better to do at 10 PM at night in a quiet neighborhood.
