The blue car, the yellow car and the truck in the picture pull up to the intersection at the same moment. In what sequence may they proceed?

Correct answer: First the yellow car, next the blue car, last the truck.

Answer options

  1. AFirst the yellow car, next the blue car, last the truck Correct
  2. BFirst the truck, next the blue car, last the yellow car
  3. CFirst the blue car, next the yellow car, last the truck

Why

When vehicles reach an intersection at once, each driver yields to the vehicle on the right, and anyone turning left also lets oncoming straight-through traffic go first. The yellow car has nobody to its right and leaves first, the blue car goes second, and the truck, turning left across the others' paths, goes last.
