When two vehicles enter an intersection at the same time, which vehicle should yield the right of way?

• A. The vehicle on the right yields to the vehicle on the left.
• B. The vehicle on the left yields to the vehicle on the right.
• C. Both yield to the vehicle proceeding straight.
• D. The vehicle going straight has priority over turning.

Answer: (C)

When two vehicles reach an intersection at the same time and one is going straight while the other is turning, the turning vehicle must yield to the vehicle proceeding straight. The way this option is phrased—both yield to the vehicle proceeding straight—emphasizes that the straight-going vehicle has priority, and the turning vehicle(s) should wait to avoid a collision. This keeps traffic moving smoothly and safely by giving the straight path clear priority in this scenario. The other ways of phrasing the rules describe different situations or general right-of-way principles that don’t directly address the straight-vs-turning case.
