At a four-way intersection, what is a good practice if everyone arrives simultaneously?

At a four-way intersection where all vehicles arrive simultaneously, the best practice is to wait for a driver to wave you on. This fosters an environment of communication and safety, as it allows drivers to clearly indicate their intentions. It can reduce confusion about who should proceed first and helps to promote cooperation among drivers.

When one driver gestures for another to proceed, they are contributing to a smoother flow of traffic and ensuring the safety of all involved. Engaging in this kind of mutual acknowledgment can help prevent accidents that may arise from uncertainty about right-of-way rules.

In certain scenarios, especially at intersections without clear signage or traffic lights, relying on non-verbal communication can be more effective than strict adherence to rules that may not account for the specific situation.
