BDifficulty 2/5

A red passenger car and a yellow bus approach a junction from opposite directions; both face a give-way sign. There is no traffic on the crossing road: the car goes straight ahead and the bus wants to turn left across its path. Who goes first?

Correct answer

The driver of the red vehicle, because it has priority.

The red car. Both must obey their give-way signs regarding the crossing road. Between the opposing vehicles, the bus turning left must ensure it can do so safely and must not cut across the path of the oncoming car going straight ahead. The bus’s size does not give it priority at this junction.
