Driving Rules Giving Way

Give Way Sign

At an intersection controlled by a Give Way sign:

  1. Slow down and be ready to stop
  2. Give way to all other vehicles, except those that have stopped at a Stop sign
  3. If you and another vehicle are coming towards each other and you are both at Give Way signs, use the give way rules
  4. You must not go until it is safe for you and all other traffic.

Single or double white lines are marked on sealed roads to help you stop where you can best see other traffic.

Stop Sign

At an intersection controlled by a Stop sign you must:

  1. Come to a complete stop, not just slow down

  4. Use the give way rules if you and another vehicle are coming towards each other and you are both at Stop signs
