📖 Topic overview
This chapter teaches the rules for deciding who goes first at intersections, railroad crossings, and other situations where two road users might otherwise meet at the same place — remembering that right-of-way is something you give to others, not something you take for yourself.
The most-tested concepts are the rules at uncontrolled intersections (yielding to the vehicle on your right), yielding when turning left, entering from a private driveway or unpaved road, and the specific duties to yield to emergency vehicles, school buses, and pedestrians.
Common mistakes include assuming you always have the right-of-way just because a rule technically favors you (you must still yield if it keeps everyone safe), and not knowing the exact rules for passing a stopped school bus or approaching a railroad crossing.
What's the golden rule of right-of-way in Texas?
Right-of-way must be given, never taken — even if the rules say it's technically your turn, a safe driver still yields if another road user hasn't done so, to avoid a crash.
Who yields at an intersection with no signs or signals?
When there's no traffic control at all, the driver approaching from the left must yield to a vehicle approaching from the right, but you should still make sure the other driver actually yields before you proceed.
When must I stop for a school bus?
You must stop for a school bus displaying alternately flashing red lights from either direction on most roads, and you may not proceed until the lights stop flashing, the bus moves, or the driver signals you to go.
