Right of Way Quiz: Rules for Vehicles at Intersections

Study Notes

Stop Signs and Intersections

When approaching an intersection with a stop sign, the driver must stop before the white line or, if there is no line, at the point where the driver can see oncoming traffic.
After stopping at an intersection with a stop sign, the driver must yield to pedestrians and other vehicles already in the intersection, and then proceed with caution.

Uncontrolled 'T' Intersections

At an uncontrolled 'T' intersection, the driver on the terminating road must yield the right-of-way to traffic on the continuous road.

'Yield Right-of-Way' Signs

When approaching an intersection with a 'Yield Right-of-Way' sign, the driver must slow down or stop, if necessary, to let other traffic or pedestrians go first.
A driver must stop at an intersection with a 'Yield Right-of-Way' sign if it is necessary to avoid a collision or to let others go first.
The main purpose of a 'Yield Right-of-Way' sign is to assign right-of-way to other traffic or pedestrians.
The main difference between a stop sign and a 'Yield Right-of-Way' sign is that a stop sign always requires a complete stop, while a 'Yield Right-of-Way' sign requires yielding to others but not always stopping.

General Rules

At an uncontrolled 'T' intersection, the driver should approach slowly and cautiously, looking for traffic on the continuous road.
The primary purpose of the text is to provide rules and guidelines for drivers approaching intersections with stop signs or 'Yield Right-of-Way' signs.

Description

Test your knowledge on the rules that vehicles must follow when approaching intersections with stop signs. Learn about stopping at stop lines, crosswalks, and points where the driver has visibility of approaching traffic.
