Uncontrolled 4-way Intersection
At uncontrolled 4-way intersections, traffic is commonly required to slow and give way to any traffic on the right in countries which drive on the right, and slow and give way to traffic to the left in countries which drive on the left. Common practice dictates that drivers will treat the intersection as if they have a give way (yield) sign and look both directions for cross-traffic, to avoid any accidents with motorists who did not recognize or did not follow the uncontrolled intersection rule.

Famous quotes containing the word intersection:
“You can always tell a Midwestern couple in Europe because they will be standing in the middle of a busy intersection looking at a wind-blown map and arguing over which way is west. European cities, with their wandering streets and undisciplined alleys, drive Midwesterners practically insane.”
—Bill Bryson (b. 1951)
