What should you do when you come to a four-way stop?

Let the car going faster proceed
Yield to traffic on your right
Yield to traffic on your left
Alternate turns with other drivers

The correct answer is: Yield to traffic on your right

When approaching a four-way stop, you should follow the rule of "first come, first served" and yield to traffic on your right. This means that if a car approaches the intersection before you, even if they are on your left, they have the right of way and you must yield to them. This rule helps to maintain order and prevent accidents at four-way stops. Option A is incorrect because the speed of a vehicle does not determine who has the right of way at a four-way stop. Option C is incorrect because even if there is no traffic on your left, you still need to yield to cars on your right. Option D is incorrect because alternating turns with other drivers can cause confusion and disrupt the flow of traffic. Remember, when in doubt, always yield to traffic on your right at a four-way stop.
