Zorluk: KolayPriority and Right of Way

You are waiting to turn right out of a side road onto a busy priority road. An approaching driver flashes their headlights at you. What should you do?

  1. A
    Assume the driver is giving you right of way and emerge immediately
  2. B
    Emerge while focusing entirely on the flashing vehicle to monitor their speed
  3. Wait and make your own assessment, moving out only when you are sure it is safeCevap
  4. D
    Move off promptly without checking your blind spots for cyclists or pedestrians

Cevap

Wait and assess the road independently, emerging only when you are certain it is completely safe to do so.
Under Highway Code Rules 110 and 111, headlights should only be flashed to let other road users know you are there. You must never assume that flashing headlights mean another driver is giving way or granting you right of way. You must wait, make your own independent observations, and only emerge when it is entirely safe.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Interpret the meaning of flashing headlights under the Highway Code
Recognise that flashing headlights officially only indicate the other driver's presence, not an invitation to proceed or a concession of priority.
Highway Code Rules 110 and 111 state that drivers must never assume flashing headlights give them right of way.
2
Conduct a full independent safety assessment of the junction
Check all directions, blind spots, and road users (including pedestrians and cyclists) before moving off.
Other road users may not have seen the signal or may not stop, so you remain responsible for your own safety.
