When do you actually gain the right-of-way under Kansas law?
- Only when another road user gives it to you — Correct answer
- Whenever you reach an intersection first
- Whenever the law assigns it to you
- Whenever you have a green light
Explanation: The law only tells you who must yield — it never grants the right-of-way. You only gain it when another road user yields it to you, and you must do everything possible to avoid striking a pedestrian, property, or another vehicle.

- Maintain speed because you have the right-of-way

Explanation: You must always yield to pedestrians, even when they are jaywalking or crossing where they should not be. Avoiding a collision takes priority over who is technically at fault.
