Would you rather your Father get a ticket? Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. And yes the Police have discretion on whether or not to issue a ticket. Your Dad needs to be more careful at stop signs.

It's ALLOWED not aloud (you read books aloud).
Do you mean are they allowed to give breaks on tickets or stop people for not completely stopping at stop signs?
Either way the answer is yes.

Failure to make a complete, controlled stop at a stop sign is a violation.
The officer has the authority to decide whether to issue a citation or let you go with a warning.

Yes. The officer is allowed to decide if a ticket is issued or not. It is called officer discretion.

Yes. It's called Officer DIscretion. I have the ability to decide (within reason) which offenses to cite and when to just give out a warning.

Yes. It is what is called a 'Rolling Stop'. And it is worth a ticket.

Yes, it is a law violation, therefore the police can stop your father. The sign says "STOP", not make a half a** stop and procede through the intersection.

It would be called a warning. Officers discretion.
By the way the word you were looking for is "allowed"

If the cops have filled their quota, they may let you off with a warning. Yes they have quotas not matter what you hear.
