At signed intersections, which general rule prevails?
Signage: General rules
Explanation
In **signaled intersections**, it is essential to **comply with what the signal indicates**. This means you must follow the instructions of the vertical signs, traffic lights, or traffic officers present at the intersection. These signals are designed to regulate the flow of traffic and ensure the safety of all road users.
- At an intersection with signals, the right of way is determined by the instructions of the signal, not by the position of the vehicles.
- If there are no lines indicating the entrance to the intersection, you must wait in a place where you can clearly see the intersection and the approaching vehicles, but always respecting the signals present.
In summary, at any signaled intersection, the general rule is to follow the indications of the signals, as these take precedence over other traffic rules, such as yielding to the right.
