Right of Way & Giving Way

In the Philippines, on which side of the road do you normally drive?

  • a.The center of the road
  • b.The right side✓
  • c.Either side, as convenient
  • d.The left side

The Philippines uses right-hand traffic: you keep to the right side of the road, and slower traffic stays right while faster traffic passes on the left.

Right of Way & Giving Way

Where overtaking is legal and safe on a two-way road in the Philippines, you should normally pass another vehicle on its:

  • a.Left side✓
  • b.Either side without signaling
  • c.Shoulder
  • d.Right side

Because the Philippines drives on the right, you overtake on the left, only when it is clearly safe, legal, and you can see far enough ahead. Never overtake on a blind curve or where prohibited.

Right of Way & Giving Way

As you approach a rotonda (roundabout) where traffic circulates counter-clockwise, you must:

  • a.Speed up to merge quickly
  • b.Give way to vehicles already in the roundabout, which approach from your left✓
  • c.Enter first because you are on the main road
  • d.Give way to vehicles waiting behind you

In right-hand traffic a roundabout flows counter-clockwise, so circulating vehicles reach you from the left. Give way to any vehicle already in the roundabout before entering.

Right of Way & Giving Way

Two vehicles reach an unmarked intersection (no signs or signals) at about the same time. A safe general rule is to:

  • a.Both accelerate through
  • b.Insist on going first
  • c.Give way to the vehicle on your right✓
  • d.Give way to the vehicle on your left

At an uncontrolled intersection, a common safe practice is to yield to the vehicle on your right and to whoever arrived clearly first. When in doubt, give way to avoid a collision. Confirm local rules with the LTO.

Right of Way & Giving Way

You are turning left at an intersection and oncoming traffic is going straight through. You should:

  • a.Sound your horn and turn
  • b.Turn quickly before they arrive
  • c.Give way to the oncoming vehicles going straight✓
  • d.Expect them to stop for you

A driver turning across the path of oncoming traffic must give way to vehicles going straight ahead. Wait for a safe gap before completing the turn.
