You approach a situation and are unsure which term applies. Put the assessment in the correct order.
- Determine whether you yourself are carrying out a special manoeuvre (driving off, driveway, merging, reversing)
- If so: apply 'letting go first', to all other traffic
- If not, and it is simply crossing traffic at a junction: apply 'giving priority'
- Also always check separately: is there a blind or mobility-impaired person? You let them go first regardless
Correct answer: Determine whether you yourself are carrying out a special manoeuvre (driving off, driveway, merging, reversing); If so: apply 'letting go first', to all other traffic; If not, and it is simply crossing traffic at a junction: apply 'giving priority'; Also always check separately: is there a blind or mobility-impaired person? You let them go first regardless
Explanation
First determine whether you yourself are doing something special (letting go first), otherwise it is crossing traffic (giving priority); the duty toward blind people always runs separately alongside that.
