An intersection has no signs or signals, and no police officer is directing traffic. What does the law require?

Answer options

Why

At an uncontrolled intersection, a driver turning left has to wait for oncoming vehicles that are heading straight. Also, when two vehicles arrive at the same moment, the driver to the left must yield to the driver to the right; it never works the other way around.
