While the default right-of-way rule for vehicles under Wis. Stat. 346.18(1) could plausibly cover airplanes, the WI Supreme Court did not believe the Legislature intended it to do so and the Court was unsure how some terms like “intersection” would apply to air highways.

Too much of a good thing for Milwaukee? What happens when a landlord promises one marquee tenant a rooftop sign, then lands another marquee tenant a few months later?
