Right of way
At an uncontrolled intersection with two vehicles arriving at roughly the same time, which vehicle should yield?
- The vehicle on the left yields to the vehicle on the right
- The vehicle on the right always yields to the one on the left
- Whichever vehicle is smaller must yield
Show answer and explanation
The vehicle on the left yields to the vehicle on the right. The Alaska manual states the vehicle on the left should yield to the vehicle on the right at uncontrolled intersections, though it stresses right of way is never simply assumed.
