If two cars enter an uncontrolled intersection at the same time, who must yield?

  1. The driver on the right

  2. The driver on the left

  3. Both drivers must yield

  4. Neither driver must yield

The correct answer is: The driver on the left

In situations where two vehicles arrive at an uncontrolled intersection simultaneously, the general rule is that the driver on the left must yield to the driver on the right. This regulation is in place to promote safety and prevent confusion at intersections lacking traffic signals or signs. By yielding to the vehicle on the right, drivers can facilitate a smoother flow of traffic and reduce the likelihood of accidents. For instance, if two cars approach the intersection at the same time and one vehicle is on the right side of the other, the driver on the left is legally obligated to yield, allowing the right-side vehicle to proceed first. This principle is consistent with the right-of-way rules in New Jersey and many other jurisdictions, emphasizing the importance of awareness and cooperation among drivers at intersections.
