If the three vehicles pictured get to this intersection at the same moment, which one should go first, which second, and which last?

Correct answer: Yellow car first, blue car second, truck last.

Answer options

  1. AYellow car first, blue car second, truck last Correct
  2. BTruck first, yellow car second, blue car last
  3. CBlue car first, truck second, yellow car last

Why

A tie is settled by the yield-to-the-right rule: nothing approaches from the yellow car's right, so it leaves first, and the blue car, which had the yellow car on its right, goes second. The truck is turning left and has the blue car on its right, so it must wait for both of them.
