Yellow blue red, have no idea of the road rules in the US, but looking at it practically yellow does not cross lanes, so goes straight through leaving room for the blue to get around the obstruction more easily, this leaves room for the truck to swing into the space where blue was as the truck needs to swing out wide to make the turn.

Then I would assume the blue a bc the truck has and would take more time make turn and blocking the lane of sight. However normally the truck would of the right. But like you said since the blue car is already turning its most likely not going to stop but then isn't always case. Truck is easing. But y'all were over thinking it.

A typical oil tanker semi-trailer has a length of 42.64 feet. There is no way that Red truck is going to make that turn without going over the curb taking out the corner sign, and possibly risk the fuel tank falling over, spilling and catching fire. This is also assuming that the semi cab can navigate the sharp turn without going over the debris which would mess up his front end. Besides, with or without the debris on the road, the Red Truck needs are larger turning radius so the Blue Car is in the way either way. The Yellow Minibus seeing all this, panics and drives over the debris and promptly gets stuck, flees his car and runs into the adjacent grassy field screaming "the end of the world is near."

Yellow first, blue second, then the truck. I’m a truck driver and that’s what I’d do, I’d wait until everything else is clear, but if I was there I really wouldn’t care who goes first, just as long as there’s no wreck in front of me.

For the truck, even if it did not have the yield sign (which it does), there is an implied yield.

Here in Germany, you wouldn't have this situation, because if the truck has a yield sign, the yellow truck also have a priority sign. This is not the case here, as the sign you can see for the yellow is the same as the blue has (just with the intersection posting in the other direction). So any assumption from here to there is wrong. With a priority sign: yellow, blue, truck. Without priority/yield for anyone, so taking the rule right before left, well, that is tricky. The blue one would be first then, if there was no obstacle on his side, then the truck and the yellow last. But with the obstacle on the road, it would be § 1: Participation in road traffic requires constant caution and mutual consideration. Means, someone has to take a step back, and grant someone priority he would have above. So, giving hand signals to the one you want to yield to open this knot. I.E. allowing the red to drive first, then the yellow and the blue last. This is case dependent. But, this is the US, not Germany, so it has to be yellow, blue, red.

As a truck driver, that intersection would be a nightmare. Threading between the sign and debris without taking out the sign would be next to impossible with the debris obstructing the road ahead, it would still be an extremely tight squeeze with the truck fully in the oncoming lane. I'd be turning left and either looking for a better place to turn around and return to the intersection, or an alternate route if faster.

Thx. I appreciate it

Interesting. Diamond shaped signs usually happen to designate a priority road in Europe. Of course the symbol gives away there's an intersection ahead. Signs that designate danger, hazards or invoke extra attention are triangle shaped, white with a red border over here in Europe, though the symbols are very similar. It's good to be aware of different road signs around the world when travelling. When there's an obstruction on your side of the road requiring you to go around using the oncoming side of the road, you have to yield for oncoming traffic and the yield sign for the truck completes the puzzle. Bus first, car second, truck third.

I'd say the blue car should yield to the minibus but not the truck, though in practice this kind of unusual situation is when you just have to go slow, be courtious and just kind of let everyone figure each other out organically.

The truck has the yield sign so it yields no matter what. The yellow has the right of way so it goes before the blue which will be second. Even if uncontrolled the same scenario as the main thru road has priority over the perpendicular road and the blue would have to wait for the yellow and the red for the blue.

Yellow, then blue, then red. But if I'm the blue, AND it's clear behind me, yellow goes through and I back up a healthy amount to give red the space they need to clear the turn. This is mainly because I want to see what will happen when red tries to negotiate this; plus, I potentially stop anyone else coming up behind me from blocking red from completing the turn.

My first instinct Yellow, blue, red without seeing it yet

Blue should wait for both.

A swed here. If i was the blue car I hade thought I was going last only because the sign lock like it means 2 main roads meet and rights hand rule is implemented

Big truck first so he can plow some of that debris back for the yellow van, then blue car can go to the right on the grass at the same time to avoid debris and other vehicles, this is so easy.

Nailed it.

I no longer can drive due to health however I knew the answer. few people in MA and RI would. (I'm from RI close to MA)

I believe that the minibus should go first; having the right of way from the yield sign and no obstructions. Then the blue car should go; also having the right of way from the yield sign, but then the truck will have the most turning space possible to safely conduct the turn.

It would be 3 over here. - Blue has the obstruction tho it has to yield to yellow. - Red is turning, it should yield to all traffic going straight. - But. Blue also has to turn *and* use the oncoming lane. It has to yield to all traffic rightfully using that lane. This means blue has to yield to both. Wonder what it is in US rules. [pressing play]

@aj7978

Жыл бұрын

That's what I thought. You should only have to yield to the cars from the left when making a right hand turn.

Blue would be invading yellow's lane (even if it weren't for the "be prepared to stop" sign, which any reasonable person reads as AT LEAST "yield", if not an outright stop sign. So Blue should be waiting. Red has a yeild. So yellow has right-of-way. Yellow is also straight-thru on the "mainline", so he's got right-of way. Once he's gone, Blue is right of red, (red also has a yield) so goes next. Red waits until the coast is clear, makes his turn. Scenario complete. Order of go: Yellow, blue, red.

2 basic rule of thought the one going faster has the right of way and the one that needs to change lanes or roads the least has it

Meanwhile in other countries, they'd put up temporary traffic lights to control the flow. And then you'd have a situation where they're stuck on red for 5+ mins (which happens) when they usually cycle between 30 and 120 seconds - depending on how long the roadworks are.

The diamond and upside down triangle shaped road signs are internationally recognisable even when they are covered with snow. The diamond shaped road sign tells you that you have the right of way, the other says you have to give way to the crossing traffic.

1. Truck is turning therefore must yield to crossing traffic. Blue car's lane is blocked and must yield to traffic in the other lane. Yellow car has unobstructed lane straight ahead and therefore has right of way.

Blue car yeilds to both car and truck because the obstruction is in the blue car's lane. The blue car has to yeild untill the oncoming lane is clear. The truck would coming onto the main road before the blue car crooes over to the truck's lane, so the truck would in the oncoming lane before the blue car, and the blue car has to wait for the oncoming lane to be clear. But, we all know, the blue car ain't stopping for nobody and careen around the obstruction and bully his way through first.

There’s a problem with this hypothetical situation while that orange sign that says there is crew working on the road almost always has contra flow being done by either road workers or police so the real answer would be whatever the person attending to the contra flow says to do as they usually have some type of contact with the person at the other end of the lane. That being said the yellow mini bus goes first than while yielding to oncoming traffic the blue lane goes than seeing as the red truck actually has a yield sign and is turning they mus make sure it is safe to do so meaning they go last.

The yield sign for the truck was so small, I had to look 3 times to see it. 😄

Good thing the "minibus" isn't turning right since the truck is on the wrong side of the road in an effort not to take out the yield sign when it turns right. That should have been your question: All the vehicles in the same positions. Blue car continuing forward with debris in it's lane, yellow bus turning right with the truck in it's lane and the truck turning right from the "T" intersection while sitting in the wrong lane. The red truck is in the yellow minibus' way, the blue car is in the red truck's way and the yellow minibus is in the blue car's way. Who moves first, what direction do they move and in what order do all three vehicles clear the intersection? There's your question.

Yellow,blue,red. 1

Yellow as yellow wants to go straight on, then blue as blue is waiting to go past the pile then red as red has to give way to all on main road

I'd go a little further, the sign on the truck's road is a pointing down triangle, meaning it is a stop sign. It must be the last one no matter what. Then the car facing the obstacle must let all the traffic pass before switching to an incoming traffic lane. It solves the situation pretty much everywhere in the world.

First yellow , then blue then red truck , there’s a sign there for the red truck (Im Italian so i think.. it’s a yield sign?). So the right for the truck is occupied by the blue car and because of that sign he goes last

Yellow obviously goes first because its a straight line. It makes the most sense.

#1. HOWEVER, if the truck should start rolling, I would sure as heck yield. Gross vehicle weight may not be everything - but it’s way ahead of whatever is in first place. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

Again, a test of practicality and common sense. In the situations like this that forces one of the lanes to enter the opposite direction, the cars in the blocked lane have to act as if they will turn left, whether there actually is a left to be turned to. So they have to yield to the incoming traffic. The main thing to consider is that it is neither the incoming cars' duty nor responsibility to stop and wait, unless there is an officer telling or signalling them to do so. If uncontrolled, whether they choose to move a little right themselves and make space for 2 vehicles, even if possible, is their prerogative. They aren't obligated to. So in this situation, the car will only yield to the minibus. Because the truck has to yield to both, because it is trying to enter a main road.

Red truck has a yield sign so must yield to everyone else. Blue car moves through yellow's lane so has to yield to it. Therefore: yellow, blue, red (1). The real question is how the truck will manage to turn without breaking something.

First to go should be the person with the least maneuvers to avoid the dangerous situation. That would be yellow. Next should be the person who would normally not need to stop. That would be blue. Last is the person who needs to enter the street. That would be red. Especially since this is a semi-truck and needs all the room they can get... so a clear intersection is always best.

Red truck might have a yield sign but that is for vehicles in the correct lane .

I got the "test" correct. But in real life if I am in the blue car I am yielding to both. The mini bus because that is the law, the truck because he weighs 20x as much and would crush me.

The truck would have to wait for you because it needs both lanes to make that turn without destroying the sign.

IRL, I believe you being too cautious could lead to future errors for other drivers. As a small passenger vehicle, you can react much faster if something is about to go wrong. But if it is your right of way, the best option is to proceed with it. Unless you're just being super nice to let the semi out.

Hi I am a frequent traveller to USA and live in India. we drive here on the left and the traffic rules are way different as we were ruled by British. . it wold be of great help if there are tips on basics like stop signs ,how to find a one way street etc.

Not everyone drives like the US--which is why channels like this one exist. Typically, whoever occupies the lane, has right of way--like the yellow car. If the obstruction was in his lane, then the blue car would have right of way. The red truck is stopped--which is mandatory at an intersection like this. He can only turn if/when the road is clear for him to make the turn safely. Sometimes you'll see drivers try to force their way through an intersection like this--especially if there's a lot of traffic. Sometimes the yellow car will stop and allow the truck to turn, with a wave, but that requires the blue care to be patient. I really wish we had a method to take turns in high traffic areas, but that's not the case here.

Carefully Study the driver guide book, and watch a lot of videos. Maybe get some lessons. I'm a driving instructor in USA, and this is what I did before driving in Europe. I watched a Lot of mock driving tests. I was very nervous to drive on the other side of the road. I had a friend with me to help! 😊

Yes the blue car is essentially passing, that is borrowing the other lane to get around an obstacle. If the road work was another vehicle he couldn't just go around it and get in yellow's lane with yellow approaching. He waits for yellow to get behind him then goes around the pile. Red yields so that blue and yellow are out of the way before making his turn. Would red be able to make a left turn at this corner even if no other vehicles were present? He'd need to enter the wrong side and then move over when he gets around the pile.

3. Blue yields to minivan and truck. Minivan has right of way , then truck and lastly blue car.

@@Goldenhawk583 that is not correct. traffic is permitted to make right hand turns without any consideration of what traffic is doing as it approaches from the right. a vehicle traveling outside or against the lane of travel NEVER has the right of way. end of story.

3) Minibus and Truck

Though the rule in America is that you give way to traffic approaching from your right, this is not a cross road, it's a T junction, so that doesn't apply to the van here, only the truck does it apply. So the Yellow van has the right of way. The blue car would normally have the right of way, but in this case it has its lane blocked, the car is stopped and needs to leave its lane and drive on to oncoming traffic, therefore it needs to wait till the way is clear. The Truck cannot proceed till the car moves on, because of the wide angel the truck needs to take, so because of this the car gets precedence over the Truck.

I initially thought minibus only, but I changed my mind. If the obstruction wasn't there, then the red truck would not have to wait for the blue car to pass. The obstruction is not in the path of the red truck, therefore the red truck should not consider it to be his or her problem. Blue car has to use the wrong side of the road, It should yield to anybody who is using - or is trying to use - that side of the road. This includes the red truck. Where this one gets a bit tricky is when you consider the size of the turning circle of the truck. It might need to use both lanes of the main road in order to enter it. In which case, he or she would be wise to wait for the road to be clear in both directions.

Even if the truck was replaced with another vehicle, they would still have to wait for the yellow minibus to go and then the blue car, before they make their turn. So, in actuality, the descriptions don't matter, since the perpendicular lane opposing the straight road has a yield sign

The worst situation is when all three lanes are filled fo the brim with traffic lines. Then the red truck would never get to go. In that situation, the blue car wouldn't either, so a whole two lanes would be stuck, with each new yellow van driver not knowing the history of the traffic.

Mini,car & truck.

Yellow first blue second truck third

Legally the blue is only obligated to wait for the minibus. Morally it depends if there's cars behind him whether he should let the truck go before him as well, because he might have to wait a lot.

It's pretty stupid that america has more rectangular signs at a 45 degree rotation. In europe it's only for the sign giving (or taking away) right of way, but when it's taking away, then it must be combined or followed-up by stop (the only octagon) or by a triangle with two corners at the top and one corner on bottom, which means to yield. You never want drivers to approach an unregulated intersection that has "end of right of way" sign only, because no one else can recognize it from the back. This way we have three shapes that are recognizable from any direction so you always know who has right of way.

0:52 3) Even if the law may say otherwise it makes more sense to be careful. So from the point of view of blue I'd assume Yellow ->Red then Blue. From Reds point of view I'd say Yellow->Blue then Red, unless Blue shows that it's waiting for you. 2:41 Okey, that might be the US laws, but it makes no sense to assume that for blue in a passenger car. It's a good approach for Red though.

Very easy if you know the rules of the road. Yellow car has right of way,next the blue car ,last the truck can turn.

The bicycle rider was seriously injured because he thought he had right of way regardless of everyone else.

Hey same road same rules, except when I blow thru stop signs or ignore right-of-way or impede traffic, or ...

I would say the blue car, but it's also 2022 and me first is always the answer.

Well, I don't think we can properly answer the question until we know whether it's the yellow minibus or the blue truck that is going in the wrong direction. That road has a white dashed line on it: it's a one-way street.

Okay, first off, why is this clearly two-way road marked off with WHITE lines? They should be yellow. The answer is 1) Minibus Only. Since the minibus has an unobstructed lane and no control elements in the intersection, it has the right-of-way. The blue car needs to make a pass to avoid the rubble, but nothing else (other than oncoming traffic) is restricting it's movement. Meanwhile, the Truck has a Yield sign, so he must yield for ALL traffic in the lane he's going to turn into, which will include the blue car. Of course, our instructor here seems to have a tendency to lean toward the overcautious at times, so although 1 is legally correct, he might say the answer is 3.

open lane vehicle first , obstructed lane vehicle second, perpendicular lane vehicle third. based off of how much interference to traffic your turn causes, essentially.

Green, blue, red. Green has the right of way since their lane isn’t blocked. Blue waits for green, then uses their lane to pass the obstruction. Red turns when both cars are past and the way is clear

Red yellow and blue 2

This is extemely dangerous rule. The truck turning right usually looks only to his left to yield traffic. It does not expect someone from the right to enter into the oncoming lane and may not be aware of the obstacles on the road before the blue car. If I was a driver of a blue car I would wait for everyone to pass for my own safety.

by european standards it is Answer 3) Solution: blue has the obstacle on his side thus has to wait for yellow. For Yellow the Truck (red) has the right of way so it has to wait. At the end that means red first, yellow second, blue last.

In Europe that’s piss easy the yellow blue red, it’s child’s play . Top of the T has priority so red waits regardless, the blue has oncoming traffic, the yellow is on it’s lane and continuing straight it’s basic knowledge that everyone knows

My order: 1 Yellow (red and blue, stop) 2 Blue (red stop) 3 Red

It could be and according to what I see to avoid congestion or accidents according to the photograph, an official who works in the repair should be directing traffic, if by any chance there is no worker, if the roads are not very busy, and the three vehicles are found at the same time, for me it should be by logic and mutual agreement; pass first the minibus by right of way, then the sedan and finally the truck so that it can maneuver safely and the others who come are obliged to give priority and space to heavy transport.
