Zusammenfassung:Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method of controlling a vehicle having an autonomous driving mode at a multi-way stop intersection. For instance, that the vehicle has come to a stop at a multi-stop intersection may be determined. At least one road user at the intersection may be identified. Based on the determination that the vehicle has come to the stop, a period of time to wait for the at least one road user to proceed through the intersection may be determined. After waiting the determined period of time, that the at least one road user has not begun to proceed through the intersection may be determined. Based on the determination that the at least one user has not begun to proceed through the intersection, the vehicle may be controlled in the autonomous driving mode in order to proceed through the intersection.
