How must a driver act when entering traffic coming from a private property?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

When entering a public road from private property (such as a garage, a private driveway, or a private parking lot), the driver does not have the right of way. Regulations state that the maneuver must be performed at a speed slow enough to allow the vehicle to be stopped instantly if any user approaches on the road being entered. The driver must yield to vehicles approaching from both the left and the right. Entering at high speed is dangerous and prevents reaction, and assuming priority is a serious error that can cause accidents.
