Dear Wikiwand AI, let's keep it short by simply answering these key questions:
Can you list the top facts and stats about Right-in/right-out?
Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Right-in/right-out (RIRO) and left-in/left-out (LILO) refer to a type of three-way road intersection where turning movements of vehicles are restricted. A RIRO permits only right turns and a LILO permits only left turns. "Right-in" and "left-in" refer to turns from a main road into an intersection (or a driveway or parcel); "right-out" and "left-out" refer to turns from an intersection (or a driveway or parcel) to a main road.[1][2][3] RIRO is typical when vehicles drive on the right, and LILO is usual where vehicles drive on the left. This is because minor roads usually connect to the outsides of two-way roads. However, on a divided highway, both RIRO and LILO intersections can occur.
The remainder of this article refers only to RIRO but applies equally to LILO.
A RIRO intersection differs from a 3/4 intersection (right in/right out/left in) and an unrestricted intersection.
