At a four-way stop intersection, which vehicle has the right of way?

• A. The car on the left
• B. The car on the right
• C. The fastest car
• D. The car turning left

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is that at a four-way stop, priority goes to the vehicle that arrives first. If two vehicles reach the intersection at the same time, the driver on the right has the right of way. That’s why the car on the right goes first in this scenario. Speed or turning left doesn’t grant priority; it’s about arrival order and, when arrival is simultaneous, which vehicle is on the right. The left-turning vehicle must yield to others if they arrived at the same time or if opposing traffic is present. Always signal and proceed with caution after establishing eye contact with other drivers.
