What Intersections Should Have a Stop Sign?

Tell us in the comments.

Last year, the North Kingstown Town Council debated whether or not to add six stop signs to the Terre Mar Drive neighborhood. Twelve residents came out to oppose the signs, calling the proposal "overkill." Another resident, who made the proposal, hoped the signs would control speeding drivers through the neighborhood and avoid accidents. 

The council eventually shot down the proposal due in part to the neighborhood's low traffic volume. But, Terre Mar isn't the first and certainly won't be the last neighborhood to face this debate: to add stop signs or to not?

Do you know of a location or dangerous intersection where a stop sign is needed?
