You come to an intersection that has no STOP or YIELD sign. When are you the driver who must give way?

Answer options

Why

If no sign or signal governs an intersection, a vehicle already inside it has priority, so hold back until it is clear. When two vehicles get there at once, the one on the left must yield to the one on the right.
