I'm driving down the road and come to a stop sign. I stop and put my turn signal on to show that I want to turn left onto the main road.
A few seconds later, a car comes up to a stop sign across from me on the other side of the road. He wants to go straight across the road. He got there a few seconds after I had already stopped.
After looking both ways, I begin to make the turn; however, at the same time, he begins to go straight, driving right into my path. I swerve and avoid hitting him, but now he says he had the right of way, because he was going straight. I say it doesn't matter which way we're going, because I got to the sign first; I had the right of way. If we had both arrived at the same time, he would have had the right of way.
Who's right?
