Right of Way Rules Explained
Explains that all streets have equal dignity and right of way depends on arrival order. If equidistant, the driver from the right has priority. Courtesy corners with stops grant priority to the first complete stop. A stop sign on one street gives right of way to that street but only if you can enter without blocking through traffic.
Safe left and right turns guidance from driving manual
The Texas Driving Handbook from the Texas Department of Public Safety advises turning left from the inside lane with a signal and waiting for oncoming traffic to clear. It warns against crossing into the center lane and emphasizes staying in the correct lane until the turn is complete. The handbook is available on request from the Drivers License Division in Austin.
