At an intersection, should straight-going vehicles yield to left-turning vehicles or vice versa?
1 Answers
At an intersection, left-turning vehicles should yield to straight-going vehicles. The explanation for left-turning vehicles yielding to straight-going vehicles is as follows: Explanation of turning vehicles yielding to straight-going vehicles: The so-called 'left-turning vehicles yielding to straight-going vehicles' means that during road travel, vehicles turning left should, in principle, give way to vehicles going straight. Similarly, 'right-turning vehicles yielding to left-turning vehicles' means that during road travel, vehicles turning right should, in principle, give way to vehicles turning left. Legal basis: According to the 'Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China,' when vehicles are traveling in opposite directions, right-turning motor vehicles should yield to left-turning vehicles. In addition to complying with the provisions of Article 51, paragraphs (2) and (3), there is a clear stipulation that when motor vehicles pass through intersections without traffic signal control or traffic police direction, right-turning motor vehicles should yield to left-turning vehicles when traveling in opposite directions.
