What does the manual say about having the right of way?
The rule
Even when you have the right of way, it isn't a complete right: be ready to let others go, since waiting a few seconds is far better than a crash.
Having the right of way isn't a complete right. Be ready to let other road users go; waiting a few seconds is better than risking a crash.
From the New York State Driver's Manual, page 46. This question is our own wording of that rule. The handbook and the DMV have the final word.
