When two vehicles arrive at an uncontrolled intersection at the same time, who has the right-of-way?

Question: When two vehicles arrive at an uncontrolled intersection at the same time, who has the right-of-way?

Answer options:

• The vehicle on the left ✅ The vehicle on the right
• The faster vehicle
• The larger vehicle

Correct answer: The vehicle on the right

Explanation: Under the Québec Highway Safety Code, when two vehicles reach an uncontrolled intersection simultaneously, the vehicle on the right has the legal right-of-way. This rule establishes a predictable order of movement to prevent collisions. Yielding to the vehicle on the left is incorrect because it reverses this statutory priority. Speed and vehicle size are never used to determine right-of-way, making those options incorrect and dangerous. On the SAAQ knowledge test, mastering intersection right-of-way rules is highly relevant, as questions frequently evaluate your ability to navigate unregulated crossings safely and avoid failing critical safety scenarios.
