What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
My town Cop saw me drive by, and followed me(he has done this numerous times, explicitly following almost harassment type of following) and we came to a stop sign, I did not stop AT the stop sign, but in front of it. The stop sign is atleast 2 car lengths from the actual intersection and because of the terrain you cannot see if you stopped at the sign, so i proceded and stopped where I could safely see.. I proceded my turn and he followed me still..about 3 minutes later, he pulls me over for not stopping AT the stop sign but stopping in front of it. Is he right? Did I break the law? I was told my driver ed instructor I am able to procede closest as safely possible to the intersection..This happened in West Virginia.
