General Guidelines at Intersections

  • Slow down the vehicle while approaching an intersection.
  • Always stop your vehicle well before stop line.
  • Choose the turning lane (say, the left lane for turning left) at least 30m in advance.
  • Give proper indication (turning indicator or hand signal) before you turn.
  • Do not change lane immediately after giving turning signal. It is important to wait for five seconds so that the vehicles behind you can understand your intention.
  • Always give way to vehicles and pedestrians on the road that you are entering.
  • Do not cut the corner at the intersection.
  • Always stay alert and don’t enter an intersection area if there is a chance of getting caught with a turning vehicle.
  • Avoid overtaking at intersections. Otherwise, it may lead to a collision with turning vehicle.
