If you're piloting a vehicle on the road, you should follow all the rules of the road. This is the reason people hate cyclists.

Laws have social interpretation around them - there are plenty of road laws I see routinely broken for convenience by cars that are effectively unenforced.

"Idaho stops", ie. treating stop signs as yields is both enshrined in law in a few different areas and should be law in many others.

Idaho stops are perfectly acceptable in my view.
