Does the left or right have the right of way?

If you reach an uncontrolled intersection at close to the same time, the vehicle who actually reached the intersection last is the driver who must yield the right of way. If you reach the intersection at the same time, the driver on the left should yield the right of way.

What car goes first at a 4-way stop?

First to arrive, first to go The first car to pull up to the stop sign is the first car that gets to proceed. If cars are all stopping at the intersection at different times, each should proceed through in the order they arrived. It doesn’t matter which direction a car is going either.

Does a 4-way stop go clockwise?

Four-way stops always operate in a clockwise direction. So, the car furthest to the right always has the right of way, and then cars take their turns in a clockwise direction. If multiple cars approach a four-way stop at about the same time, the driver who comes to a complete stop first proceeds first.

Who has right of way when passing parked cars?

In these cases, there are two rules for working out who has right of way when passing parked vehicles. In practical terms, that means: If the parked cars are on your side of the road, then you should give way to oncoming traffic. If the parked cars are on the opposite side of the road, you have priority.

What happens if 4 cars get to a 4 way stop at the same time?

Left Turn Right of Way The same rule applies when four cars arrive at a four-way stop at the same time – use caution, and make eye contact with other drivers. Roundabouts follow a simpler rule: Yield to any cars already in the roundabout, and proceed when the way is clear.

What happens if 4 cars stop at the same time?

Four-way stops are confusing to many drivers. The first vehicle to stop at the intersection is also the first to enter it. If two or more drivers come to a stop at the same time, they yield to the driver on their right.

Who has right of way on street?

The Highway Code states that If someone has started crossing the road and you want to turn into the road, then the pedestrian has priority, so you should slow down and give way until they’ve crossed. Rule 195 in the Highway Code states that you must give way when a pedestrian has moved onto a zebra crossing.
