Actually the red octagon thing means to stop, however when it has a white border around it, then it means yield

Ah that makes perfect sense now, i thought that red sign was just decorative until i met Shado and i figured after him that it was for brake checks. Now I'm confused what is it for again?

this comment from that page sums it up nicely:

"What a horrible article. When you see wild swing (from 20th to 49th)... doesnt it tell you that something is seriously flawed with the survey. We didn't all of the sudden become dumber.

If 5,130 people were in the survey / 51 states (and DC) that means about 100 drivers were surveyed from each state.

Just add it to the list of countless meaningless studies that some one throws out there."

Yeah it's obvious that it's not really reliable and completely meaningless which makes the article even more of a
