This second example of an unmarked T-intersection demonstrates that even if someone is turning in front of you you must wait for them if you are on the bottom of the T. Look twice in case you missed something on your first glance. Pay particular attention as cyclists and motorcyclists are more difficult to see at intersections because of their smaller profile. If it’s a crossroads, look for traffic coming towards you that might turn right in front of you. If there is a traffic controller in the intersection you must obey what they tell you.Īs you approach an intersection you should check for traffic on your left and right at all times. Instructions from a police officer override signs and lights at an intersection.
Even if you don’t think you see another vehicle, there might be a bike or pedestrian that you haven’t seen. You must always use your indicator to let other road users know what you are doing including when turning, overtaking or changing lanes. If it’s a GIVE WAY sign, then you must be prepared to stop if there’s other traffic coming. When there’s a STOP sign it is compulsory to stop even if you think you can see the way is clear. Intersections will be controlled by traffic lights or give way and stop signs, or they could be uncontrolled with no lights or signs. This article covers intersections, roundabouts, lane use and traffic light rules in New South Wales, including where road traffic intersects with other traffic like pedestrians, cyclists and trams/light rail.
