Approaching a junction
Observe, slow down and identify the order of passage before crossing.
Objective
Approach junctions with time to observe and identify who has priority.
Practical examples
- Where no signs change the rule, give way to traffic from the right at a junction.
- Do not enter a junction unless you can clear it; also watch for users already in it.
Key points
- Approach at a speed that lets you observe and react.
- Check signs, traffic lights and road users already in the junction.
- Never assume you have priority: follow signs and the applicable rules.
