Answer: The vehicle on the right must give way to the vehicle on the left
In New Zealand, at an uncontrolled intersection where vehicles arrive simultaneously, you must give way to any vehicle on your right.
You are turning right at an intersection and an oncoming vehicle is also turning right. How should both vehicles pass each other?
Answer: Pass driver-side to driver-side (front to front)
When both vehicles are turning right, the default in New Zealand is to pass driver-side to driver-side (front to front), though road markings may indicate otherwise.
A vehicle is waiting to turn right at an intersection. What must the turning vehicle give way to?
Answer: Oncoming vehicles going straight ahead and oncoming vehicles turning left
When turning right, you must give way to oncoming vehicles going straight and those turning left, as they have priority over your right turn.
What does a flashing amber light at an intersection mean?

When approaching a GIVE WAY sign at an intersection, what are you required to do?
Answer: Slow down and give way to vehicles and pedestrians on the road you are entering
A GIVE WAY sign requires you to slow down or stop if necessary and give way to all traffic and pedestrians on the road you are entering.
You are in a lane marked for turning left only but realise you want to go straight. What should you do?
Answer: Turn left then find a way to turn around
If you are already in a turn-only lane you should complete that turn legally and then correct your route, as unsafe lane changes near intersections are dangerous and illegal.
