Right-of-way (transportation)

Right-of-way refers to who gets to go first in a specific place, like on a road or sidewalk. It's like when you're playing a game and someone gets to go before you do. Different vehicles and people have different rules for right-of-way to help keep everyone safe.
For example, if you're driving a car, you generally have to give right-of-way to people who are walking or riding a bike. If you're at a stop sign or traffic light, you have to wait for the other drivers or pedestrians to clear the area before you can move forward. Similarly, if you're walking on a sidewalk and you come to an intersection where cars are stopped, you have the right-of-way to cross the street, but you still need to be careful and watch for cars that might not be paying attention.
Remember, following right-of-way rules is important for everyone's safety, so always pay attention and be aware of your surroundings!
