What is Right-of-Way?

Right-of-way determines who goes first and who waits at intersections, crosswalks, and other traffic situations. It prevents confusion and accidents by setting clear rules for all road users.

Common Right-of-Way Scenarios

• Intersections without Signs: Yield to the car on your right.
• Stop Signs: First come, first go, but if two cars arrive at the same time, the car on the right goes first.
• Pedestrian Crosswalks: Always yield to pedestrians.
• Turning Left: Yield to oncoming traffic.
• Emergency Vehicles: Always pull over and let them pass.

Why It Matters

Knowing when to yield or proceed keeps traffic flowing and prevents crashes. If in doubt, yield!
