Which car has the right of way? Even the most experienced will be lost

At a T-junction, it is important to know how the right of way works. In practice, when approaching this intersection, it is important to know that in traffic with three vehicles, priority must be given to the vehicle that cannot turn.

Therefore, vehicles that need to turn right or left must let the car pass and continue straight ahead. After the car has passed; Those who have to continue straight ahead must first let the car pass, which has to turn left, then the car that has to turn right.

In this situation, the right of way on the road belongs to the car, which has to continue straight ahead, only then can the others turn. According to the Highway Code, the car that must turn right is the one that is allowed to pass last at the T-shaped intersection if there are no signs to the contrary. For those who do not comply with the Highway Code; it must be said that this is also the case with the right of priority, Art. According to Article 145 of the Highway Code, they face a fine of up to six hundred euros, a deduction of five points from the driving licence and a withdrawal of the driving licence for a maximum period of three months.

Priority at a four-way intersection

At an intersection with four directions, there is a precise order for overtaking. In practice, vehicles coming from the top right have priority if there is no special signage. In the case of rail vehicles, emergency vehicles or trains, these have priority.

If four vehicles have to continue in four directions at an intersection, the car or another means of transport may continue straight ahead first. After the vehicle that is supposed to continue straight has crossed the road, the other vehicle that arrived first must pass.

The vehicle that has to turn left has to give way to other vehicles at the intersection. As a result, vehicles that have to drive on the left side have to give way to all other vehicles that arrive at the intersection first. It should be noted that in the case of flashing blue vehicles or vehicles equipped with sirens, always have the right of way.
