In the US from left to right whereas in the UK you would look to the right first as that is the direction from which traffic will first approach and you always look to the danger which is more/most immediate .

A Right Turn sign means that you are allowed to make a right turn at the next intersection?

Yes, a right turn signal means that a right turn is coming up at the next intersection and you can turn right. The left turn signal sign means the same thing, but that you can turn left.


What way look first at intersections?

Before you enter an intersection, search for threatening objects and conditions to the left - vehicles you will encounter first will come from this direction. Look ahead and then to the right. Often drivers fail to see vehicles to the right. Be aware that you are most likely to be hit by a vehicle coming from the right.


Who has the right away at an uncontrolled T intersection?

It depends on the intersection. In the U.S.: At a four way stop, who ever got there first has the right to go first, even when turning left. If you have a green left turn arrow you have the right of way to turn left. With a solid green light only, or no stop signs, yield to drivers going straight, or if someone is turning right into the same lane you are turning left into, if you got there at the same time, let them go first, they are closer to that lane than you.

If a car is turning left on an intersection and another car is turning left and a semi is coming through the middle so what do these drivers do in a situation like this?

wait for the semi to go through the intersection. Regardless of who may have the right-of-way, if you're in a car never argue with a semi.


In ny state 4 way stops who goes after the first one there The car to the righ or the car to the left?

Not sure about NY, but I believe the first vehicle that approches the intersection goes first, followed by the others in order of arrival at intersection. Unless two or more people come to the intersection at the same time then its the person to the right. once the first person has cleared the intersection.


When approaching any intersection or driveway?

If you're walking look, first, over your left shoulder for vehicles turning right, and then look right for vehicles not stopping . If your driving, look left, then right, then left again. specially for motorcycles.


What happens if you have right of way at a four way intersection and you are hit by another car?

- A driver approaching an intersection must yield the right-of-way to traffic already in the intersection. (traffic in the intersection has the right of way) - If drivers are approaching an intersection from opposite directions, the driver turning left must yield to approaching traffic going straight or turning right. (traffic going straight or turning right has the right-of-way) - Two drivers at an intersection that arrived at the same time at a right angle. The driver on the left must yield the right-of way. ( the driver on the right has the right of way) -Never insist on the right-away


When approaching a yellow light to turn right with a car already waiting in the left hand turn lane who has the right of way?

the person making a right. If you are making a left hand turn, you never have the right of way. in this situation, you would turn right first and the person making a left hand turn (if already in the middle of the intersection) can turn because if they don't they are blocking traffic. If they are not in the intersection, they should not move at all.
