who has right of way on 4 way left turn

Traffic on the thoroughfare has the right-of-way if I understand the way you're describing it.

 

Whomever has the biggest vehicle usually wins.

 

i thought, that that the vehicle trying to get off the road, has the right of way, as if that person does not get off the road, it can tie up traffic, maybe even cause an accident.

i had nearly such an incident many years ago, at a terminal of mine, i was trying to enter..

another one of my company drivers, saw me trying to come into the yard..he tried pulling out....

he caused a bottle neck..

i went and spoke to the safety guy, he said i had the right of way to get off the road, he had the responsibility to yield to me (or anyone else) trying to enter the yard, from a street..

but then too, unless you have pics and arrows, i can;t see what you are saying....

 

person on your left has the right of way.if you both arrive at the same time ........ so many differant answers so that's why they are screwed up ..... those round abouts that are 2 lanes except when I go through they are 1 lane .....

 

In that situation, I stay put and wave the other drivers on, even if I am not driving a truck. If the traffic is constant, I wave one set of drivers on, then watch closely as I make my turn as the person who has been in the intersection for the longest.

 

Man on right gets right of way.

Stay put until they clear out, then move.

Hope you have a dash cam going.

 

Wow some of the comments here make me wonder.

This is basic driving folks. Stuff you learned in drivers ed in high school.

4 way stop... 1st vehicle to arrive has right away.

Vehicles to the left yeild right of way to the vehicles to their right.


So if a vehicle from the North & a vehicle from the West arrive at the same time, The vehicle from the west would have the right away. If the vehicle from the north arrived 1st, they would have the right away.

If 4 vehicles arrive at the same time, the 1st one there goes, then you go around to the right taking turns.


***Arriving 1st is kinda important, because people tend to roll stop signs and feel self important. You have to come to a complete stop. If you haven’t stopped, your not there yet. @buddyd157 did your co worker reach the stop line before you? If so then what makes you more important?


A stop sign is a stop sign, they have a tendency to create traffic back ups from time to time. As a profesional driver your responcability is to follow the rules of the road and not make them up as you go. You’re a truck driver not a cop, stop trying to control traffic.

The OP clearly stated that it's not a 4-way stop intersection. It sounds like a thru street with apartment parking entrances on each side. If you are exiting private property onto a thru street you must yield to the street traffic. If the traffic is turning off of the thoroughfare into the parking area, they would still have the right-of-way over traffic entering the street. Perhaps there is some confusion based on the clarity of the OP's description of the situation...
