Explanation
Uncontrolled intersections do not have signals or signs to indicate right-of-way, so typically, the first vehicle to arrive is the first to enter the intersection. If two or more drivers arrive at the same time, each driver must yield to the vehicle on their right, giving the right-of-way to the driver farthest to the right.
