If all four cars pull up to a four way stop at the exact same time, then courtesy kicks in. Hopefully all the drivers involved make eye contact with each other and treat each other as they would want to be treated. There is always someone that will take the initiatave and take off with no regard for the others. I would suggest to wait for that person to make their move. That will thin out the crowd and they won't hit you. When my father taught me to drive 30plus years ago he told me, "Remember, everybody out there is crazy except you and me. And I'm not too sure about you." It means trust nobody. Assume that anyone can do anything while driving at any time.

It is not courtesy, it is law. The driver of every vehicle approaching or entering an intersection on the left shall yield the right of way to the vehicle on the right, unless otherwise designated by an official traffic control device or otherwise directed by a police officer. This is common motor vehicle law in most states and if you review Revised Statutes Annotated (RSA) in your state you can find the law pertaining to this. New Hampshire is under Title XXI, Chapter 265 Rules of the Road, Overtaking and Passing, Highway Markings, Right of Way, Section 265:28 Vehicle Approaching or Entering Intersection.

I have taken several defensive driving courses and they all state, just because you have the right of way doesn't mean you have to take it. Let the aggressive drivers go first and make it to your destination safely. Also, it is common sense that the car to your right goes before you.

What happens if cars approaching from opposite directions reach an intersection simultaneously?

If cars approaching from opposite directions reach an intersection simultaneously, the general rule is to yield to the vehicle on the right. This means that the car on the right has the right of way and can proceed through the intersection first. If both cars are at a stop sign or a four-way stop, the car that arrived first should go first. If it is unclear who arrived first, it is best to communicate with the other driver to determine who should proceed first.


How do drivers navigate a four-way stop when four cars arrive simultaneously?

When four cars arrive at a four-way stop simultaneously, the driver on the right has the right of way. Drivers should yield to the car on their right and take turns proceeding through the intersection. It is important to communicate with other drivers using hand signals or eye contact to ensure a smooth and safe flow of traffic.

If 3 cars get to a stop sign at the same time...the rules say the car on the right goes first...my problem is that each cars right is not the same...what gives.... What if it was 4 cars?

At a standard 4-way intersection, the drivers of any three cars arriving at exactly the same time can easily tell which one is on the right. Each driver looks to his (or her) right. Two of them will see a car to their right. One will see an unoccupied part of the intersection, or a car that clearly arrived after the first three. That is the car "on the right" and the one that should go first. If four cars arrive at the intersection simultaneously (very unlikely) it is almost certain the at least one of the drivers will believe he (or she) got there first and will pull into the intersection. The rest will follow in reasonable order.
