Question 4

Low angle exterior photo of two vehicles approaching a 4-way stop intersection perpendicular to each other. The vehicle on the left is stopped at the stop line and the vehicle on the right is still approaching 20 feet from the stop line.

A. With both vehicles pictured approaching this intersection, does car A or B have the right of way?

B. Why?

A. Car A has the right of way in this scenario.

B. Car A has the right of way because it is already stopped at the stop line, while car B is still approaching the intersection and is 20 feet away from the stop line. According to general traffic rules, the vehicle that arrives first at the intersection and comes to a complete stop has the right of way.
