"Interference on the right!" - a phrase that is on everyone's lips. But when does this rule apply? Are there any exceptions? When can someone on the right be wrong? Read about it in this article.
What is "interference on the right"?
This concept is often used in various technical literature. The rule defines the procedure for corroding cars, motorcycles and other vehicles when changing lanes and passing through intersections.
This concept has been known for a very long time. Even in the edition of the SDA of 1971, it was said that the driver who has no interference on the right has the preferential right to move when vehicles of the same group pass. Then the term was introduced. Historically, this is exactly the order of passing at the intersections of equivalent roads that has developed, because it is very convenient. Suppose two vehicles are approaching an intersection at the same speed. The roads are equivalent, the intersection is unregulated. If there is a right-hand arrangement of vehicles, then the first at the point of intersection of the routes of these crews will be the one that drove up on the right. This is due to the fact that he does not need toit to pass the left side of the carriageway it crosses.
Apparently, precisely because it was believed that the crew that was the first to be at the disputed point was right, a completely logical "rule of interference from the right" appeared. Accordingly, when driving on the left, the opposite law applies. However, in accordance with the Convention on Road Traffic, countries that have adopted left-hand traffic can independently choose the rule for passing equivalent intersections, guided by the rule of obstruction from the left or right.
"Interference on the right" at the intersection
This rule only applies when the roads are equivalent and the intersection is not regulated. In reality, such situations are quite rare.
The rule itself is very simple - you need to give way to anyone who approaches the intersection on your right.
If you turn right, you have no interference. You can go safely. When you need to continue straight ahead and a vehicle on your right turns left, you need to drive together. If there is no possibility for such a maneuver, you give way. If the car on your right is going left or straight ahead, you yield anyway.
In a situation where you have to turn left, and the vehicle on your right is going left or straight, you need to skip it. If the other car turns right, you both pass at the same time.
The rule must also be observed when driving in adjacent territories,gas stations, etc., where there are no corresponding signs.
"Interference on the right" when moving in a circle
Often the circle is also an unregulated intersection. If priority signs are not installed, then, moving in a circle, you need to give way to everyone who enters it. If at the entrance to the roundabout you see the sign "Give way", then you need to give way to all cars that have already entered the intersection. If the "Main Road" is in front of you, you should be let through. But the rule only applies when there are no precedence signs.

From childhood, we are familiar with traffic lights, but in detail the features of their work are studied only by drivers. They know what a flashing green traffic light means and what pitfalls are hidden behind these artificial traffic controllers. In paragraph 6 of the SDA (except for paragraphs 6.10-6.12) talks about how to navigate by traffic lights, and what types of these devices exist
