Florida Learner's Permit Practice Test

Who has the right of way at an intersection?

Pedestrians on sidewalks Whoever arrived at the intersection first Vehicles on the major street Vehicles on the minor street

Correct Answer:

Vehicles on the major street

Explanation:

At an intersection, the vehicles on the major street have the right of way. This is because they typically have more traffic and a higher speed limit, making it safer for them to continue without stopping. Pedestrians on sidewalks have right of way only when they have a crosswalk or pedestrian signal. While it may seem fair for whoever arrived first to have right of way, this is not always safe as one vehicle may have a better view of the intersection or a higher speed, making it more dangerous for them to stop. Therefore, it is important for vehicles on the minor street to yield to those on the major street.
