You'd probably need a relation to assign each stop sign to the street.
This seems like a lot of work for something so common.

There are also places where you have to stop but there isn't a stop
sign per se. There may be STOP painted on the roadway, or perhaps the
law says that when approaching a certain type of road you have to stop
even if there's no sign.
