Who has right of way?

[Mom]

I am stopped at a red light/right turning arrow, wanting to turn right. The light turns green, as does the arrow.

Who gives way?

Well me of course, as the wankers coming off the motorway run the red light in their hurry to get home

It took only one near miss for me to realise that I needed to stay stopped on a red light at this intersection. I really wish plod would show it a bit of attention. I would be rich indeed if I got paid for each time I have seen it happen.

Can think of at least another two, in Petone.

I thought this was about the one at the top of Cuba Street. I used to work there so had to turn right at the four way stop every day. To be honest I think it was so confusing to people that they actually took some care and everyone manged to deal with it. Put signals up and there would be carnage.

Indeed, the very one in question.

Bit like that town (can recall where exactly) They removed all road signage and now everyone drives real slow because of the FUD (Fear, uncertainty & doubt). Wonder how that worked out long term? I'm not convinced by the concept myself. Lights aren't the answer but I'd prefer an island (where you can give way to the right without caring where anyone else is going) or a priority given to one of the roads (Preferably Able-Smith st)

yes, turning traffic gives way to straight through

Only in a perfect world.

Zackery !! If there were less signs people would have to think for themselves. God forbid. The law of the jungle would rule i.e. trucks get right of way over everyone, then gang members first, then the rest of us.

I'm a fan of less rules, learning to think for myself. I think.

Donuts.

we should have more of these magic roundabout same guys who designed the galaxy note me thinks

[Ocean1]

A four way stop sign intersection is no different to a roundabout if you think about it....

Except you don't have to turn at a four way stop sign intersection.

Actually, there's a roundabout on Bell Rd that you don't have to turn for either. Well, maybe in the van, but certainly not on the Buell.
