Intersections & Right-of-WayStandalone practice
At an all-way stop, car A finishes its stop before car B arrives and stops. Their paths conflict and no pedestrian is crossing. Which car should ordinarily go first?
Correct answer: Car A, after confirming the way is safe
Why
At an all-way stop, every driver must stop. Ordinarily, the driver arriving first proceeds first when safe. Simultaneous arrivals require the applicable right-of-way rules; this case is not a tie. Never force the movement if another road user creates a conflict.
