You and a pickup reach an uncontrolled rural intersection at about the same time. There are no signs or signals. The pickup approaches on the cross road from your left. Who should yield?
A approaches northbound while pickup B approaches from A’s left on the crossing rural road. The intersection has no signs or signals.
Correct answer: The pickup should yield to you, but you still slow down and get ready to stop.
Why
At an intersection with no signs or signals, the vehicle that arrives first goes first. If two vehicles arrive at about the same time, the driver on the left yields to the driver on the right. Uncontrolled rural intersections can be very dangerous, so slow down as you approach, look both ways, and be ready to stop even when the other driver should yield to you.
