BDifficulty 2/5

You travel on a priority road and see a vehicle joining from the right which must give way to you. Must you help it join?

Correct answer

Yes, as far as possible.

Yes, as far as possible without creating danger. The joining driver’s duty to give way does not remove other drivers’ duty to facilitate the manoeuvre. You may adjust speed or change lanes when lawful and safe, first checking traffic and signalling the move where required; you need not invade another lane or brake abruptly. The duty is not limited to buses, although particular care applies to passenger transport leaving a signed stop. Helping a vehicle join does not give it unconditional priority.
