At a 4-way stop, who has the right of way?

The fastest driver
Whoever arrived first
The driver on the right
The driver on the left

The correct answer is: Whoever arrived first

At a 4-way stop, the general rule is that the first driver to come to a complete stop at the intersection has the right of way. This allows for a smooth and organized flow of traffic and avoids any potential confusion or accidents. Choosing option A, the fastest driver, is incorrect as speed should not dictate who has the right of way. Option C, the driver on the right, may be correct in some countries, but in most places, the driver who arrived first has priority. Option D, the driver on the left, is also incorrect as it goes against the general rule mentioned earlier.
