CHAPTER 2 - 4 DRIVING THROUGH INTERSECTIONS

Question 1

What’s the difference btw controlled and uncontrolled intersections?

Answer 1

• controlled intersections: have traffic lights, yield signs or stop signs to control traffic.
• uncontrolled intersections: have no signs or traffic lights

Question 2

What happens if 2 vehicles come to an uncontrolled intersection from different roads at the same time?

Answer 2

the driver on the left must let the driver on the right go first (yielding the right-of-way)

Question 3

What does “yield the right-of-way” mean?

Answer 3

It means the driver must let another driver go first.
At an intersection without signs or lights, you must yield the right-of-way to a vehicle approaching the intersection before you, and if you arrive at the same time, the vehicle approaching from the right has the right-of-way.

At any intersection where you want to turn left or right, you must yield the right-of-way.
