No. A stop sign were the driver is essentially perpendicular to the highway.

The alignments are really ugly, but pulling away from that stop shouldn't be any different than from any other stop controlled intersection.

Sometimes people die because they don't realize it is only a two way stop. But here it looks like she thought she could beat the truck and maybe overestimated the ability of her vehicle to accelerate with the load it was carrying.

After working with my pal the excavator and riding with him in his fully loaded dump truck, I'm an advocate of drivers training including at least half a day in the cab of a loaded semi or dump truck.

Youth especially doesn't understand those rigs simply cannot stop on a dime, like their own vehicles sometimes can.
