  1. The car to the driver's left

  2. The car to the driver's right

  3. Whoever stops first

  4. The car going straight

Option B, the car to the driver's right, would only have the right of way if the other car was making a left turn, as making a right turn would still give the right of way to the car on the left. Option C is incorrect because it does not specify which car would have the right of way, and in this scenario, it would be the car to the driver's left. Option D, the car going straight, is also incorrect because it does not specify where the car is going and therefore cannot determine
