OK, I would not be sure what to do at a four stop sign intersection,,, these were never mentioned in any driving lessons or driving tests that I did.

Being confused is probably the sensible option.

Being a smart arse will probably get you killed.


The first basic law of driving in Australia: you simply give way to your right.

First come, first served.

The chances of 4 cars arriving at the 4 stop signs at exactly the same time are quite remote.

These sort of intersections are common in some states in the US, and the Americans seem to deal with them okay.

I don't think so.  If I am the first to stop and no-one is on my right....I go.

First come, first served.

If you arrive together, though, you give way to your right.

It couldn't be simpler.
