General rule at unsigned junctions: priority to the right. This does not apply in roundabouts: RGC article 57 says vehicles already circulating inside have priority over those joining — inside traffic has priority unless signs say otherwise.
From 1 October 2026 (RD 518/2026): priority between drivers, cyclists and pedestrians is updated. Drivers generally have priority over pedestrians and animals when paths cross, except at marked crossings, sidewalks, pedestrian zones, or when turning into another road while pedestrians are crossing (even without a marked crossing) — then the driver must yield. Cyclists have priority over other vehicles on cycle lanes, cycle crossings or marked hard shoulders, and when a vehicle turns with a cyclist nearby.
