A truck and two cars, shown in the picture, arrive together at an intersection where there are no signs or signals. In what order should they go?

Correct answer: The yellow car, then the blue car, and the truck last.

Answer options

  1. AThe truck, then the blue car, and the yellow car last
  2. BThe yellow car, then the blue car, and the truck last Correct
  3. CThe blue car, then the yellow car, and the truck last

Why

When no signs or signals control an intersection, drivers yield to traffic approaching from their right, and anyone turning left must also give way to vehicles coming toward them. The yellow car has no one on its right, so it goes first; the blue car, with the yellow car on its right, follows; the truck turns left, has the blue car to its right and the yellow car facing it, and so goes last.
