According to the PSAs being broadcast by the APD it is.
From my understanding, “divided” means with a physical divider, which would mean a median, a ditch, “k” rails, etc.
So if you’ve got four lanes, with no divider of any sort between the two lanes heading one direction, and the two lanes heading the other direction, then it would fall under the NOT a divided highway definition, and, as the PSAs in our town stipulate, a case in which you WOULD be required by law to stop.
And FTR, while the bus may pick up on one side of the highway, they also DROP OFF at night on that side, so while the kids may cross in the morning by themselves, or have parents drop them off to get to the bus stop (in other words, prior to the bus arriving for them), then it would stop at the same stop and put out its stop signs so that the kids could re-cross the street to the opposite side.
Thought of another stop sign one…
The stop sign at the top of my street has the white line about 20 feet after the stop sign and THAT’S where you are supposed to stop. Then I have the right of way to turn onto the street. But most people almost imperceptibly slow down at the sign or the line (it varies) without even looking to see if there’s another car waiting and go right on through while still talking on their cell phones. Damn sign might as well not even be there.
I guess I should really blame the city for the, one of many, poorly designed intersections.
…when assholes refuse to put their headlights on when it’s pitch dark due to a thunderstorm and it’s raining cats & dogs.
It’s been the fucking law for nearly 15 years here and there’s still a big segment of the population that refuses to comply.
And
I hate it when schmucks believe right-on-red means “make the turn if I can beat the oncoming traffic” - NO, ASSHOLE, you should never affect the on coming traffic - they have right-of-way. If you caused the oncoming car to hit his brakes you fucked up. Now go hand in your license.
… you have a group project with tight deadline and others in the group haven’t done shit!
… the more you accomplish at work, the more mgmt wants you to take on, WITHOUT compen$ation!

You feel stabbing pain in your nose every thirty seconds after a shot of novocaine. Did you hit a nerve, Dr. Shakes?
What’s almost as bad is doing a group project with a bunch of glory hogs that want their contribution to take the lion’s share of the project’s success. I have a great example of this-
Last semester we had to write a children’s book. I was in a group of 6 people. Among the hassles I encountered with the group:
-One of the illustrators felt we didn’t include enough of her illustrations and made a big production out of it because she didn’t think she’d get a good grade since her contribution was small. Frankly I think she got off easy since she did hardly anything compared to the writer and editor (I wrote, another member edited. We were constantly working/modifying drafts the whole time)
-People would agree with an idea, then after we spent 3 weeks on it, change their mind and want us to abandon it totally :mad:
-The layout designer was supposed to take the final, edited manuscript and retype it into ‘blocks’ of text on the book’s pages. After this the pages would be laminated and bound into a simple book. Thanks to sloppy typing/copying skills, the designer left the text riddled with typos and errors, and we couldn’t even white-out some of the errors because the book had already been laminated and they did all this at the last minute, meaning I saw the mistakes right before we turned the book in.
We got a B+ but I was still angry because I know we could have gotten an easy A if everybody would have just STFU and done their job :mad:
