The key to road safety is compliance with traffic rules by all road users. Most accidents occur at unregulated intersections, especially in poor visibility or with poor road surfaces.

We offer you to test your knowledge with a difficult test. What should the driver of a vehicle approaching an intersection where there are no priority signs and the road surface cannot be determined due to weather or other conditions?

What should the driver do in this situation?

  1. Consider that he is on the main road.
  2. Consider that he is on a secondary road.
  3. Give way only when turning left.

Explanation.

Clause 16.1 of the Traffic Rules of Ukraine stipulates that if the traffic light is turned off or operates in the yellow flashing mode and there is no traffic controller, the intersection is considered unregulated and drivers must follow the rules for passing unregulated intersections and the relevant road signs installed at the intersection.

At the intersection of unequal roads, the driver of a vehicle moving on a secondary road must give way to vehicles approaching this intersection of roadways on the main road, regardless of the direction of their further movement.

According to paragraph 16.12 of the SDA, at the intersection of equivalent roads, the driver of a non-rail vehicle is obliged to give way to vehicles approaching from the right, except for intersections where circular traffic is organized.

In this situation, paragraph 16.15 of the SDA is decisive. If it is impossible to determine the road surface (dark time of day, mud, snow, etc.) and there are no priority signs, the driver should assume that he is on a secondary road.

Correct answer.

The correct answer is 2 - the driver should consider that he is on a secondary road.
