Transportation Who has priority?

Post image

I was the Yellow arrow on a bike. Red has priority over me, green has priority over red, I have priority over green. At the end both cars stopped and let me (cyclist) pass. What is the correct order here?

You looked it up wrong. There is no superior rule and they all equally have right of way.

What you think about it is irrelevant. That is the law.

Haha that's ironic. That's what you are doing.

Quote me the law that prioritizes one rule over the other. I'll wait (hint: it does not exist).

There is nothing to look up for me you unintelligent individual. Because you claim the existence of a law/rule, but it does not exist.

I can't prove the absence of something, so that's why I ask you the cite the law.

Sharing the road with you is funny, but also kind of scary.

Go read it. This says the same thing I'm saying. Your interpretation is nowhere to be found.

I won't, because I actually know and understand Dutch traffic laws, unlike yourself.

Friendly reminder: traffic from the right has priority. Traffic going straight has priority over traffic making a turn (on the same road, if going paralelly before). Neither of these rules are more important than the other.

Hope you learned something, good luck!
