Examples of intersections include:. Since your chances of a collision increase in an intersection , it's important to proceed with caution. Here are a few rules you should follow:. As a common courtesy and to create a safe traffic environment, you should always obey right-of-way rules. Extra caution should be given when encountering:. At intersections, it can be difficult to anticipate the actions of other drivers.
These general rules were created to decrease the chance of a collision and to alert other drivers when right of way should be given. The law does not give anyone the right of way on the road. Instead, it states who is required to yield the right of way in certain instances. It is also the responsibility of the driver to do everything possible to be safe and avoid a collision.
Use this guide to learn the right-of-way basics and help promote traffic safety on the road. Intersections An intersection is any point when one road meets another. Examples of intersections include: Cross streets. Side streets. Freeway entrances. Use your judgement, common sense, and consideration for the individual location. Here is a not perfect, but not too bad example. Clark Drive and East Broadway in Vancouver is a larger intersection.
Car 2 the van is inside the intersection, and car 3 is waiting behind the line. Overall it looks fairly decent:. When the light goes yellow, Car 1 and 2 can leave the intersection, but Car 3 can no longer legally move. If it turned with the red car once the light went yellow, it would be an illegal turn.
And, it is illegal to reverse on a crosswalk. As you approach an intersection, look for signs, signals, and pavement markings telling you what movements are allowed from which lanes. Get into the correct position to turn or to travel through the intersection well in advance. Many streets have signs or pavement markings indicating a particular lane is to be used for a particular traffic movement. If you end up in a lane marked for turns only when you want to go straight through the intersection, you must make the turn.
If you want to turn but end up in a lane marked for through traffic, you must continue straight through the intersection. At the intersection shown on the right, the signs and markings tell you if you are in the right lane, you may only turn right, and if you are in the left lane, you may either turn left or go straight through the intersection.
The signs and markings in the diagram shown to the left, include dual left-turn lanes. You may turn left from either lane, but the driver next to you may turn left at the same time.
Do not change lanes during the turn, as this will cause you to crash into the driver turning next to you. Also, watch out for the driver next to you straying into your turning path. The signs and markings here indicate you must turn right if you are in the right lane. If you are in the left lane, you must turn left. If you are in the center lane, you may either turn left or go straight through the intersection.
Your safety at intersections depends a lot on your proper response to the green, yellow, and red lights you see on traffic signals and to two-way and four-way stop signs. Many streets in cities are one-way streets. You will know traffic on a particular street moves in only one direction if you see ONE WAY signs posted at the intersection. Another clue a road is one way is when you see vehicles parked on both sides of the road headed in the same direction.
You can think of a divided highway as two, one-way streets. Most have a physical barrier separating traffic moving in each direction. This could be a narrow concrete barrier, or it could be a wide cement or grassy area. Making a right turn onto a divided highway is no different from making a right turn at any other intersection. Make sure you have a safe gap to turn right in front of traffic approaching from your left. There is a special danger in making a left turn onto a divided highway, however.
If you do not realize you are turning onto a divided highway, you may turn left before you get to the physical divider and end up in a head-on collision with traffic approaching from your left.
