Editing Intersection (road) (section)

=== Traffic controls ===
Another way of classifying intersections is by traffic control technology:

* [[Uncontrolled intersection]]s, without signs or [[Traffic Signal|signals]] (or sometimes with a warning sign). [[Traffic#Passage Priority (right of way)|Priority (right-of-way)]] rules may vary by country: on a 4-way intersection traffic from the right often has priority; on a 3-way intersection either traffic from the right has priority again, or traffic on the continuing road. For traffic coming from  the same or opposite direction, that which goes straight has priority over that which turns off.
* Yield-controlled intersections may or may not have specific [[yield sign|"YIELD" sign]]s (known as "GIVE WAY" signs in some countries).
* Stop-controlled intersections have one or more [[stop sign|"STOP" signs]]. Two-way stops are common, while some countries also employ [[all-way stop|four-way stop]]s.
* Signal-controlled intersections depend on [[Traffic light]], usually electric, which indicate which traffic is allowed to proceed at any particular time.
