For those who are still having trouble getting their heads around the new Give Way rules, the car review website dogandlemon.com has come up with a handy rhyme:

When I’m at the end of a road or driveway

Where the intersection is a T

Unless the sign says otherwise

The last one through is me.


At other intersections, night & day

Unless the sign says differently

If I’m turning right I must give way

Then drive through very cautiously

Dogandlemon.com editor Clive Matthew-Wilson says:

“Many people have trouble getting their heads around diagrams, and even more people forget what they’re supposed to do once they’re on the road. Our rhyme won’t work for people who prefer diagrams, but it may help everyone else.”
