Chapter 6: Driving Responsibly

    Uncontrolled intersections

    When two vehicles approach an intersection with no traffic signals or signs, both must slow down. The vehicle on the left must always yield the right-of-way to the vehicle on the right. Nevertheless, the driver with the “right-of-way” must still exercise proper care and attention to avoid a collision.


    Private entrances to public thoroughfares

    When entering a street, Provincial Road or Provincial Trunk Highway from a private road, lane, driveway or parking lot, you must stop before crossing the sidewalk and yield the right-of-way to all pedestrians and traffic. Proceed when safe.


    Funeral processions

    Drivers of vehicles in a funeral procession with lighted headlights and following a lead car may, if traffic conditions and local bylaws permit, go through a red light or stop sign with caution. The drivers of all other vehicles must yield the right-of-way to the procession.

    The lead car in the funeral procession may be equipped with a flashing purple light.
