“Nobody ever yielded their way into a collision.” Think about it. If you are in doubt about who has the right of way, give it away fast. The other driver may be wrong, but you can end up with a ticket or dead. We often say no one HAS the right-of-way until it is yielded to them. (Keep in mind I’m talking defensive driving practices, not traffic law.) Right-of-way rules are often misunderstood, and there are situations where the rules may not be clear to everyone. If there is uncertainty about which vehicle should have the right of way, give the other guy the road. When it comes to driving safely, it’s not the principle, but the outcome, that counts.
