Varies state to state, check your individual state statutes--Traffic Specialist
When turning left at an intersection with a green arrow, you have the right of way over oncoming traffic and pedestrians.
When the right of way is not clearly indicated at a four-way stop intersection, the general rule is that the first vehicle to arrive at the intersection has the right of way. If multiple vehicles arrive at the same time, the vehicle on the right typically has the right of way. It's important to yield to pedestrians and use caution when proceeding through the intersection.
Intersection
Car a because it was backing into the intersectionDiffering Opinion:Car B has no more right of way in an intersection than Car A; a general rule of the road is that any car that enters a intersection first has the right of way: this rule is extended in residential areas that have drive ways (where it is normal to back into the street). Translated; both have equal right of way, and the one there first has a superior right of way.
In most areas of the United States, the car on the right has the right of way if they meet crosswise. If they meet head to head, the driver wanting to turn left does not have the right of way over the car going straight. This rule varies from state to state. In any event, emergency vehicles always have the right of way in any direction.
At an all-way stop, the right-of-way protocol is to yield to the vehicle that arrives first at the intersection. The "first in, first out" rule means that the first vehicle to come to a complete stop at the intersection should be the first to proceed through the intersection. This rule helps determine the order in which vehicles should go to avoid confusion and ensure smooth traffic flow.
When approaching a 4-way intersection with 2 stop signs, the rule is to yield the right of way to vehicles that arrive first. If two vehicles arrive at the same time, the vehicle on the right has the right of way. It is important to come to a complete stop at the stop sign before proceeding through the intersection.

It's called right of way. Whoever is making a right turn has the right of way. Rule 1. The first car to arrive at the intersection goes first. Rule 2. If they arrive at the same time the car on the right goes first, regardless of what manuver he intends to make. Rule 3. If you're not sure, signaling the other driver to go is always good common courtesy and is acceptable.
At the intersection of two roads where traffic in all four directions is required to stop before proceeding, when two vehicles, one on each of the two roads, arrive at the intersection at the same time, the driver on the right from the point of view of the drivers has the right to proceed first.
If you arrive at an intersection with a stop sign at the same time as another vehicle, the general rule is to yield the right of way to the vehicle on your right. If in doubt, it is best to communicate with the other driver to determine who should proceed first.
