MasterDrive offers tips to navigate the chaos
Whose turn is it? Dead traffic lights needn’t cause a nightmare at intersections. Picture: SUPPLIED
One place in particular where this occurs is at dead traffic lights. In theory, every driver knows that an intersection that is normally managed by traffic lights becomes a four-way stop when the lights are out. * Do not assume because it is your turn to go, that every other driver will respect this. Double check every lane before you go. This is especially true for drivers turning right across the intersection, as other drivers tend to pay less attention to this lane.
* If there is a driver that does not stop and continues through the intersection irrespective of whether they are supposed to go yet or not, again, rather let them cross than get into an altercation or get frustrated with them.
