13-1204. Right-of-way at intersection; no traffic controls.
It is the duty of every driver of a vehicle to exercise ordinary care in approaching, entering and driving through an intersection.
Approaching an intersection from different highways or streets, drivers have the following right-of-way:
(1) The driver on the left must yield when the vehicle on the right is either in the intersection or so near to the intersection that there is danger of collision;
(2) The driver on the right must yield when the vehicle on the left will enter the intersection and pass beyond the driver's line of travel, if the driver on the right exercises ordinary care in approaching and entering the intersection.
Failure to yield the right-of-way at an intersection is negligence.
USE NOTES
This instruction is not to be used where traffic at an intersection is controlled by signs, devices or lights, and the instructions found in Chapter 15 are applicable.
