Pick an answer to test yourself.
Correct answer
Traffic approaching from the driver’s right has right of way.
Official explanation
If a driver is at a junction where the roads are of equal importance, traffic on the driver’s right has the right of way. The driver must let that traffic pass before moving on. It is important to understand that the right of way is not an absolute right. Drivers must proceed with caution whilst showing regard for other users of the road.
