A. Aircraft shall have the Right-Of-Way over all other Vehicles and Pedestrians in Airport Operations Area. However, Aircraft shall yield the Right-Of-Way to Authorized Emergency Vehicles displaying a lighted red light or when directed to yield by a Law Enforcement Officer, fire officer, or Airport control tower. The Pilot in command or the operator of such Aircraft shall, notwithstanding the foregoing, exercise caution upon observing a Vehicle or Pedestrian in or approaching his or her line of travel.
B. Within the Airport Operations Area, Vehicles approaching each other shall be subject to the following rules of Right-Of-Way:
- When Vehicles are converging upon each other (except head-on or nearly so), the Vehicle to the other’s right has the Right-Of-Way and the Driver of the Vehicle to the left shall yield the Right-Of-Way to the Vehicle to his or her right.
- When Vehicles are approaching each other head-on or nearly so, the Driver of each Vehicle shall alter his or her line of travel to the right. However, if obstruction, condition of Traffic, or surface prevents the line of travel to be altered, the Vehicle so obstructed shall slow and stop until the approaching Vehicle is well clear.
- Moving Vehicles that are being overtaken have the Right-Of-Way, and the Driver of the overtaking Vehicle shall pass well clear to the left of the Vehicle being overtaken. The Operator of the overtaking Vehicle shall sound his or her horn and flash his or her headlights before passing the Vehicle being overtaken.
