Explanation
At a four-way stop, the driver reaching the intersection first goes first after coming to a complete stop. However, if two or more vehicles are at the intersection, each driver must yield to the drivers on their right. This means that the vehicle on the left must wait for the vehicle on the right to proceed before proceeding themselves.
