Uncontrolled intersection
open-in-new
<p>An uncontrolled intersection is a <a href="/facts/Intersection_(road)/b51M4MQx">road intersection</a> where no <a href="/facts/Traffic_light/v5pwcfsQ">traffic lights</a>, <a href="/facts/Road_surface_marking/yk8thLtL">road markings</a> or <a href="/facts/Traffic_sign/yfn9b7Uf">signs</a> are used to indicate the <a href="/facts/Traffic/cHx4tMo1">right of way</a>. They are found either in residential neighborhoods or in rural areas. While the intersection itself is unmarked, warning signs or lights may be present to alert drivers to it. </p>
