When crossing the road concurrently with oncoming vehicles, the road must be given way by
Answer options
Correct answer The driver of the vehicle on the left
Explanation
The driver of the vehicle on the left. When two vehicles travelling in the same direction change lanes at the same time and their paths meet, priority belongs to the vehicle on the right, so the left-hand driver must give way. This is the general obstacle-on-the-right rule, applied where no sign, signal or special rule settles the matter. A fixed criterion is needed because in a simultaneous lane change both drivers are moving, both have checked their mirrors and both assume the other has seen them. Remember: switching on your indicator announces your intention but grants you no right of way.
