Sample question from test 1
right-of-way
At a Rhode Island four-way stop, two vehicles arrive at the same time. Which driver yields?
- The driver on the left yields to the vehicle on the right
- The driver on the right yields to the vehicle on the left
- The vehicle with the larger engine has priority
- Both drivers proceed together
Answer: The driver on the left yields to the vehicle on the right. At a four-way stop, arrival order normally settles priority, but equal arrival creates a special tie rule. The vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on its right. The second choice reverses that relationship and would give priority to the wrong approach. A larger engine has no bearing on right-of-way, and moving together would create a conflict in the intersection. Make a complete stop first, identify which vehicle is to your right, and let that vehicle proceed before entering.
