The answer is no... Most cops might let it go. The bottom line, come to a complete stop. The most common arguments for people involved in accidents when they did a rolling stop or just went through is; "I did not see anyone coming". Stop always means stop,

In most countries a stop sign requires you to make the vehicle come to a COMPLETE stop on or before the lines on the road marking the edge of the junction.

YES it is illegal to do what is often called a "Hollywood roll" (cruising through a stop sign) At the sign, you must come to a complete stop--while there, you might want to take the time to look both ways and ahead for oncoming traffic and/or pedestrians, then proceed through. If you Hollywood roll--you can get a ticket.

yes

Added: NO! That's why they're called STOP signs.

A bit more:

Think of a stop sign as a period in a sentence, not a comma. The period at the end of a sentence indicates a STOP, while the comma indicates a PAUSE. That's the same thing a stop sign does, it says to STOP, not pause. And a "rolling" stop is not really a stop.

There are hundreds of thousands of people dead and buried now because they, or someone else, didn't stop at a stop sign. Don't be one of those statistics.

Not in any jurisdiction that I am aware of. In my own, it is illegal to park within 25 feet (of the apoproach side) of the sign.
