Car permit · Right-of-way

At a four-way stop, a blue car comes from the south and will go straight, a yellow car comes from the east and will go straight, and a truck comes from the west and will turn left. All three vehicles stop at their stop signs at the same time. In what order should they go?

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

Answer options

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

Why

When vehicles stop at the same time, each driver yields to the vehicle on the right, so the blue car waits for the yellow car and the truck waits for the blue car. The truck is also turning left, so it must yield to the oncoming yellow car going straight.
