Go Straight, Turn Left or Turn Right?
1 Answers
When going straight yields to turning right, the straight-going vehicle is on the main road, while the right-turning vehicle is preparing to merge from the auxiliary road. The straight-going vehicle on the main road has the right of way. The following are the right-of-way rules for motor vehicles passing through intersections without traffic signals: 1. Right-side road: Yield to vehicles coming from the right-side road; 2. Straight-going: Turning vehicles yield to straight-going vehicles; 3. Left-turning: For vehicles traveling in opposite directions, right-turning vehicles yield to left-turning vehicles. Left-turning vehicles spend more time at the intersection than right-turning vehicles, affecting other vehicles and pedestrians for a longer duration. Therefore, right-turning vehicles should yield to left-turning vehicles. If left-turning vehicles were to yield, it would exacerbate the aforementioned adverse factors, hindering the quick clearance of vehicles at the intersection and causing congestion.
