At a junction in Rotterdam a tram turns left, while you (car) are going straight ahead on the same road. Who goes first?
- ✓ The tram goes first — this is the turning-versus-straight-ahead exception
- I go first, because I go straight ahead and straight-ahead traffic goes before turning traffic
Correct answer: The tram goes first — this is the turning-versus-straight-ahead exception
Explanation
False
Why learners get this wrong
- The tram has an extra exception besides 'from the left': also when it turns while you go straight ahead, the tram goes first
