How can you lose your right of way when entering an intersection?

By approaching at a lawful speed
By approaching at an unlawful speed
By yielding to pedestrians
By signaling before entering

The correct answer is: By approaching at an unlawful speed

Losing the right of way when entering an intersection can occur if you are approaching the intersection at an unlawful speed. When you exceed the posted speed limit or fail to reduce your speed in accordance with safe driving practices, you may compromise your ability to navigate the intersection safely and legally. This behavior can signal to other drivers that you may not be able to stop in time or react appropriately to changes in traffic conditions, thereby forfeiting your right of way. Legally, all drivers are expected to adhere to speed limits and adjust their speed for conditions such as traffic and weather; failure to do so may not only lead to losing the right of way but can also contribute to accidents. It’s important to drive at a safe speed to ensure you can yield appropriately to other vehicles and pedestrians that have the right of way at intersections.
