The basic rule is priority to the right, but it gives way to a strict order: police officer, traffic lights, signs, then special rules for trams, emergency vehicles and manoeuvres.
- A strict order Authorised officer, then lights, then signs, then priority to the right: always in that order.

- Frequent special cases Trams, emergency vehicles, zip merging: the exam loves them.
