Right-of-Way Rules at Intersections
At intersections, it can be difficult to anticipate the actions of other drivers. These general rules were created to decrease the chance of a collision and to alert other drivers when right of way should be given.
Yield the right of way at an intersection when:
- You are at a “T" intersection—yield to traffic on the through road.
- Returning to the road after the car has been parked.
- You arrive at stop sign at the same time as another vehicle.
- Yield to the vehicle on your right.
- Another vehicle reaches an intersection first.
- You're making a turn and another vehicle is going straight.
