Zorluk: KolayPriority and Right of Way

You are driving a car and preparing to turn left into a side road. Arrange the following road users in the correct order of priority, from highest priority (first to proceed) to lowest priority (last to proceed).

  1. 1A pedestrian waiting to cross the mouth of the side road
  2. 2A cyclist traveling straight ahead on your left along the main road
  3. 3Your car intending to make the left turn into the side road

Cevap

The pedestrian waiting to cross has highest priority (1st), followed by the cyclist traveling straight ahead (2nd), and lastly your car making the left turn (3rd).
According to the UK Highway Code hierarchy, drivers turning into a side road must give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross the junction (Rule H2). Drivers must also not cut across cyclists going straight ahead on their nearside (Rule H3). Therefore, the pedestrian proceeds first, the straight-ahead cyclist proceeds second, and the turning car waits and proceeds last.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the vulnerable road user crossing the side road entrance.
Pedestrian waiting to cross the junction side road has first priority.
Highway Code Rule H2 establishes that drivers turning into a road must give way to pedestrians already crossing or waiting to cross.
2
Assess the priority of the road user proceeding straight ahead along the main carriageway.
Cyclist traveling straight ahead on the nearside has second priority.
Highway Code Rule H3 explicitly forbids drivers from turning across the path of cyclists continuing straight ahead.
3
Determine when the turning vehicle may safely proceed.
Your car completes the left turn last.
A turning vehicle changes direction and must yield to vulnerable road users with higher priority in the road user hierarchy.
