What is the safest method for two cars turning right at a crossroads?

Nearside to nearside
Offside to offside
One car waits for the other
Using a roundabout

The correct answer is: Offside to offside

The safest method for two cars turning right at a crossroads is offside to offside. This is because by turning offside to offside, the two vehicles create the maximum distance between each other while making their maneuvers. This positioning minimizes the risk of collision, as both vehicles have a clearer view of each other and can judge the space available better. Contextually, turning nearside to nearside can be more dangerous as it can lead to both vehicles getting too close and potentially colliding. When both drivers are turning right while keeping to their near side, it reduces visibility and increases the chance of an accident. Waiting for the other car to complete its turn is also a safe approach, yet it can lead to unnecessary delays and could disrupt traffic flow. While using a roundabout is generally a safe method for navigating intersections, it does not apply directly to the situation of two vehicles turning right at a traditional crossroads.
