The Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security reminds that when passing through an intersection, whether it is an intersection with or without signal lights, whether it is a turning vehicle or a vehicle going straight, you must "slow down, observe, and give way" and do not fight for the right of way.
Especially when passing through an intersection without traffic lights, you must always remember and do the "three yields", namely:
"Turn to let go straight" means that vehicles turning or making a U-turn must give way to vehicles going straight.
"Turn right to left." When two vehicles turning from opposite directions enter the same road entrance, the vehicle turning right must let the vehicle turning left go first.
