At 5am on Sunday 25 March, two of the give way rules are changing to make New Zealand’s roads safer.
It’s important for cyclists to be aware of the changes so visit www.giveway.govt.nz for more information.
When you’re turning right from the bottom of a T-intersection
with no signs or signals, you will need to give way to all vehicles
at the top of the T.
So at all T-intersections and driveways, including public driveways
such as at a supermarket or hospital, think ‘Top of the T goes
before me’.
If you’re turning right, give way
This rule will apply at intersections where two vehicles are facing
no signs or signals, or the same signs or signals. You will need to
give way to left turning vehicles coming from the opposite direction
if you are turning right.
