All way stops — Indiana Permit Test

All way stops on the Indiana permit test — 3 rules, each with the reason behind it and a question on it while it is fresh.

The rules

At an all-way stop, the first vehicle to stop at the intersection is the first to go.

Taking turns in the order of arrival lets everyone know who moves next.

At an all-way stop, the rule is that the first vehicle to stop at the intersection is the first to proceed through the intersection.

Indiana Driver's Manual, p.39

If two vehicles arrive at an all-way stop at the same time, the vehicle on the left yields to the vehicle on the right.

A fixed rule for ties stops both drivers from going at once.

The vehicle on the left shall yield the right-of-way.

Indiana Driver's Manual, p.39

If there is any doubt about who has the right of way at an all-way stop, it is better to yield to the other driver.

Being right does not help if you are hurt. Yielding avoids the crash.

However, if there is any doubt which driver has the right of way or if there is the chance of a crash, it is better to yield the right of way to the other driver.

Indiana Driver's Manual, p.39

On the test

At an all-way stop, who goes first?

The first vehicle to stop. Taking turns in the order of arrival lets everyone know who moves next. Indiana Driver's Manual, p.39: “At an all-way stop, the rule is that the first vehicle to stop at the intersection is the first to proceed through the intersection.”

How this works

Most practice tests hand you a bank of questions and leave the manual somewhere else. This one puts them together.

You read one law and the reason behind it, then answer a question on that law while it is still fresh. Get it right and you move on; get it wrong and you have found the gap while it is cheap to fix, not on the morning of the exam.

Learning one rule at a time, and proving it immediately, is what turns a manual you skimmed into something you actually know — and it makes studying feel like getting somewhere rather than like waiting to find out.
