Should Right-Turning Vehicles Yield to Straight-Going Vehicles?
1 Answers
Right-turning vehicles should yield to straight-going vehicles. Relevant legal provisions: When there are traffic signs or markings indicating priority, the party with the right of way should proceed first; in the absence of traffic signs or markings, vehicles must stop and look before entering the intersection, yielding to vehicles coming from the right; turning motor vehicles must yield to straight-going vehicles; right-turning vehicles from opposite directions must yield to left-turning vehicles. Introduction to travel lanes: A travel lane refers to the highway strip portion designated for various vehicles to align longitudinally and travel safely and smoothly. Travel lanes are composed of individual lanes, which are sections designated for single-file vehicle movement. Travel lanes include only driving lanes and overtaking lanes, excluding other special-purpose lanes such as steep slope lanes or speed-change lanes. Due to their different functions and purposes, these are not counted as part of the travel lanes. Therefore, in China, the width of travel lanes is calculated by multiplying the number of lanes by the lane width.
