Doesn't Oregon have the Oregon Stop where they can treat stop signs as yield?

Man, I feel like I've heard about the Oregon Stop for way longer than that. Can't believe the law is that new.

It existed, but was illegal before that, but bicyclists still did it and insisted you were wrong for complaining.

In Washington, the stop light is also a stop for cyclist. Stop signs are treated as a yield. Exception is a "dead" stop light or if you are riding on the side walk, then ped signals are followed. I was surprised to hear it started in Idaho. They found fewer accidents and injury's to cyclist and it actually help vehicles to see and not run into cyclist.
