Every year it seems like the number of 4-way stops in town proliferates. I'll leave the efficacy of them to a different post, but I did want to mention the wide variance in driver behavior at a 4-way stop.

It seems unclear to a lot of people whom at the stop has the right-of-way. Depending on arrival time and where you are, right-of-way varies and can be confusing.

I put together a little infographic for how to handle different scenarios. Hopefully this helps demystify how to act.
