Uncontrolled intersection
you enter the intersection first... that's the reason why you got hit because you knew the the intersection was not under control
An uncontrolled intersection is an intersection that has no traffic controls -- no traffic signals, stop sighs, yield signs, etc.
The vehicle that is going straight has the right of way.
An intersection that does not have a stop light or stop signs to control the flow of traffic
treat it as you would a yield sign
15 mph
Wait for the truck to pass through the intersection
In an uncontrolled interscetion in a parking lot and you are travelling west and hit by a vechile heading south on the back passenger door, who's at fault?
Not sure about NY, but I believe the first vehicle that approches the intersection goes first, followed by the others in order of arrival at intersection. Unless two or more people come to the intersection at the same time then its the person to the right. once the first person has cleared the intersection.
It depends on where the intersection is. For an intersection in the middle of the countryside, you should probably look both ways so that you won't get hit by a car.
Basically first come first serve. Whoever gets to the intersection first, goes first, and if you get there at the same time as someone else, then you always yield to the person to your right. I hope this answers your question.
