A 4-way traffic intersection is a junction where two roads cross each other, creating four distinct paths for vehicles and pedestrians. Typically, traffic at such intersections can be controlled by stop signs, traffic lights, or roundabouts to manage the flow and ensure safety. These intersections are common in urban and suburban areas and require careful navigation to prevent accidents. Proper signaling and adherence to traffic rules are crucial for smooth operation.
The right of way is given in a traffic intersection, not taken.
Traffic approaching the light is to stop. If the way is clear, traffic can then proceed through the intersection.
If the traffic lights are not working, the intersection is treated like a 4-way stop. That is, as if everyone has a stop sign.
The 2-way intersection sign indicates that you are approaching an intersection where traffic is coming from two directions.
At an intersection, you have the right-of-way when you arrive first or when there are no traffic signs or signals indicating otherwise.

4-way stop
- 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
STOP at an intersection without a traffic light.
The right of way at an intersection is determined by traffic laws and signals that indicate which vehicle or pedestrian has priority to proceed first. These rules help to regulate traffic flow and prevent accidents.
No, a right turn at a two-way intersection does not always have to end in a stop. It depends on the traffic conditions and the presence of a stop sign or traffic signal.
The vehicle on the right has the right of way unless entering the intersection at an unlawful speed
