This exam question from the Traffic Rules of Ukraine tests the ability to safely and correctly determine the order of movement at intersections when there are no clues such as priority signs or traffic lights. Such situations often occur in populated areas and on secondary streets, and a mistake in assessing priority leads to conflicts and accidents, which is why this topic is key for the theoretical exam.
The question belongs to the section Rules for Passing Intersections and directly concerns point 16.12 of the Traffic Rules, which regulates the passage of intersections of roads with equal status. In the absence of priority signs and when the conditions are the same (the surface and nature of the roads do not give advantage to any of them), the intersection is considered equal, and the order of movement is determined by the 'give way to the vehicle on the right' rule.
The logic for choosing the options is as follows: the correct answer is to proceed first, since according to point 16.12, the driver of a non-rail vehicle is required to give way only to those approaching from the right, and in this situation, there is no such vehicle. The option 'give way to the blue car' would only be correct if this car was approaching exactly from the right relative to your direction of movement or had priority due to signs or other traffic organization, but at an equal intersection without an obstacle on the right, there are no grounds to yield.
Clause 16.12
At an intersection of roads of equal importance, the driver of a non-rail vehicle must give way to vehicles approaching from the right, except at intersections where a roundabout is organized.
Application: since the intersection is of equal importance (priority signs are absent), the “right-hand rule” applies. If there are no vehicles approaching from the right, the driver is not required to yield and may proceed first.
Thus, the correct answer is "First.", given that according to the Traffic Rules, at an intersection of equal importance, the driver is required to yield only to those vehicles approaching from the right, and in this situation, there is no such obstacle.
There are no priority signs at this intersection, and the layout of the carriageway indicates that the roads are of equal importance. Therefore, this is an intersection of roads with equal priority, where the order of passage is determined by the general rule.
According to paragraph 16.12 of the Traffic Rules of Ukraine, at an intersection of roads with equal priority, the driver of a non-rail vehicle must yield to vehicles approaching from the right. That is, the driver assesses whether there is another vehicle to their right that is approaching the intersection at the same time and may proceed.
In this situation, there is no vehicle to the right of your car to which you are required to yield. At the same time, other road users, on the contrary, must follow this same rule and take into account that for them, your car may be an "obstacle on the right."
Therefore, the correct answer is "First," since at an intersection of equal roads according to paragraph 16.12, you yield only to those approaching from the right, and in this case, there is no such obstacle.
