kruis (Intersection)
A kruis, or intersection, is a point where two or more roads meet or cross each other. It is a crucial part of road design, allowing vehicles and pedestrians to change directions. Intersections can vary in complexity, from simple two-way stops to multi-lane roundabouts and traffic signals.
At a kruis, traffic rules and signals help manage the flow of vehicles and ensure safety. Drivers must be aware of signs, signals, and the presence of other road users, including cyclists and pedestrians. Proper navigation of intersections is essential for preventing accidents and maintaining efficient traffic movement.
