Why it matters: Giving priority versus letting go first: two terms, not synonyms

The difference is not just theory: at the driveway in Wolvega you are required to let ALL traffic go first, even a cyclist you could easily have gone ahead of — whereas further on, at the ordinary junction, you only have to give way to whoever comes from the right. Anyone who confuses the terms wrongly thinks that at a driveway 'only cars from the right' count.
