Why Should Turning Vehicles Yield to Straight-going Vehicles?
1 Answers
Because straight-going vehicles generally travel at higher speeds with heavier traffic flow, while turning vehicles move slower with relatively lighter traffic, yielding to straight-going vehicles helps reduce traffic accidents. Therefore, traffic regulations mandate that turning vehicles must yield. Below are relevant explanations: 1. On many urban roads, there are main roads and branch roads (connectors). Vehicles on branch roads must yield to those on main roads, regardless of whether the branch road vehicle is going straight or encountering an intersection - they must always yield to main road vehicles. Otherwise, in case of an accident, the branch road vehicle bears full responsibility; 2. For example, when vehicle A on the main road intends to turn right into the service road, vehicle B traveling straight on the service road must yield. If failure to yield results in a collision, vehicle B on the service road will be held responsible.
