Explanation
Open intersections do not have traffic control signs or signals. Drivers must yield the right-of-way if they are entering the intersection from a secondary road, an unpaved road, or if they plan to make a left turn and a vehicle is approaching from the opposite direction. They should also yield if another vehicle is already in the intersection. If two vehicles arrive at the open intersection at the same time, the driver on the left must yield to the driver on the right.
