A driver approaching an intersection must yield the right-of-way to traffic already lawfully using the intersection.

Term

Yielding the Right of Way Example 2.

 

If drivers approaching from opposite directions reach an intersection at about the same time, a driver turning left must yield to approaching traffic going straight or turning right.
