You intend to go straight on and the driver of the oncoming vehicle intends to turn left. Do you have the right of way over him?

Correct answer: No

🔍 Situation analysis: You are approaching an intersection where the right of way is determined by vertical traffic signs. A "STOP" sign (B-20) is placed on your right-hand side, which means you must come to a complete stop and yield to all road users currently on the priority road.

📖 Explanation of the rule: At an intersection where priority is regulated by signs, the "right-hand rule" does not apply. Since your road is the subordinate one (due to the STOP sign), you are obligated to yield to anyone traveling on the priority road, regardless of whether they are turning left or going straight.

💡 Tip: When you see a STOP sign, never just slow down to a "rolling stop." You must bring the vehicle to a complete halt to properly assess the situation. Remember, if a collision occurs, ignoring this sign will be the primary factor in your liability.
