Question 1735 in the bank

When approaching a junction with no traffic signs and you wish to turn right, whilst another vehicle approaches the junction from your opposite direction, you should:

  1. Correct answer: Continue driving carefully.
  2. Stop and give right of way to the approaching vehicle.
  3. Slow down and, if needed, stop and give right of way.
  4. In any case, stop.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Continue driving carefully.

When you turn right at a junction with no traffic signs, you do not cross the opposite traffic lane, so there is no duty to stop. The duty to give right of way to opposite traffic falls on whoever turns left. If the vehicle coming from the opposite direction turns left, it crosses your path and must give you right of way. Continue carefully and watch for pedestrians and riders.
