Who goes first? Here are the rules, in plain English — no manual required.
If a car is already in the intersection, you must wait — even if your light is green.
If you're turning left, let cars going straight or turning right from the other direction go first.
If two cars stop at the same time with no stop sign or light, whoever is on the right goes first.
Cars and people already on the street or sidewalk always have the right-of-way over you.
Whether the crosswalk is painted or not, people crossing the street always go first.
If traffic is backed up ahead, wait — never block the intersection.
Cars already driving around the circle always have the right-of-way over cars entering.
