How to go through a four-way stop?

  • First Come, First Go

    • The first vehicle to stop at the intersection has the right of way.

    • If you arrive first, you go first — after coming to a complete stop, of course.

  • If Two Vehicles Arrive at the Same Time

    • The vehicle on the right has the right of way.

    • The driver on the left should yield.

  • If Two Vehicles Are Across from Each Other

    • If both are going straight, they can go at the same time.

    • If one is turning left, the driver turning left yields to the driver going straight.

  • Pedestrians Always Come First

    • If someone is in or approaching a crosswalk, they have the right of way — even if it’s your turn to go.

  • When in Doubt, Yield

    • If you’re unsure who should go, let the other driver proceed. It’s always better to be cautious than to cause a collision.
