What is the definition of the right of way?

  1. Find an immovable object and count two seconds then go if conditions are ideal, add seconds if they are not.

  2. If you try to go through a yellow light and you are in the middle of the intersection when the light turns red, you must go through the light.

  3. pull over to the right-hand side of the street you are currently on

  4. the ability to go first in an uncontrolled intersection

The correct answer is: the ability to go first in an uncontrolled intersection

The correct definition of the right of way is the ability to go first in an uncontrolled intersection. This means that in a situation where there are no traffic signs or signals directing the flow of traffic, the driver who has the right of way has the priority to proceed first. This is crucial for ensuring traffic moves smoothly and safely, as it helps prevent confusion and potential accidents at intersections. The other options provided do not accurately define the right of way and are therefore incorrect.
