Explanation
Uncontrolled intersections are potentially very dangerous if you do not slow down and check the road is clear before proceeding. If two or more vehicles arrive at an uncontrolled intersection at the same time, the vehicle on the left must yield to the driver of the vehicle on the right. You should never take your right-of-way for granted, always check that the other driver is stopped.
