All three junctions

Who goes first?

Priority to the right: a car approaches from your left

A blue car approaches from your left. Nobody approaches from your right. Who goes first?

Actual English 3D exercise: a blue car approaches from the left at an unsigned German junction.
Real browser exercise. You approach from the south in each scene. The complete starting situation is described below.

The starting situation

You approach from the south and want to go straight. A blue car approaches from the west and also goes straight. This is an ordinary road junction without police directions, lights or priority signs. Neither approach is a driveway, lowered kerb or other special entry. There is no additional vehicle on your right.

The answer

You may go first when your path is clear. From the blue car’s driving position, you approach from the right.

How to explain the order

  1. Rule out a controlling signal and special entry duties. Priority to the right is the applicable rule in this example.
  2. From your driving position, the blue car is on the left and no car approaches from the right.
  3. Now take the blue car’s perspective: you approach from its right, so its driver gives way to you. Check that the driver is actually waiting.

What changes the answer?

Add another car on your right and your duty to wait changes. Reassess the whole junction rather than carrying over the answer from this two-car example.

A reasoning trap

Having priority does not mean proceeding without checking. Look for a clear path and the other driver’s response; do not force your way into danger.
