Cevap

The two recognized methods for turning right when an oncoming vehicle is also turning right are turning offside to offside (passing behind each other) and turning nearside to nearside (passing in front of each other).
Under UK Highway Code Rule 181, when turning right at crossroads with an oncoming vehicle also turning right, drivers can either turn offside to offside (passing behind each other) or nearside to nearside (passing in front of each other). Offside to offside is generally preferred when road space allows because it provides a clearer view of oncoming traffic.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Assess the crossroads layout and the position of the oncoming right-turning vehicle.
Identify the space available and determine whether nearside or offside turning is safer.
Road layout and traffic flow determine whether passing in front of or behind the other vehicle is appropriate.
2
Execute either an offside-to-offside turn or a nearside-to-nearside turn with careful observation for oncoming vehicles.
The turn is completed safely without assuming priority or cutting off traffic.
These are the two recognized procedures specified in the Highway Code for simultaneous right turns at crossroads.
