If you are turning right into a carpark and another car is turning right to exit the car park you have to give way to them.

Yes, because they are on your right.
Basic right hand rule.

Hope there is no give way sign coming out of the car park (o:

That's correct, they are on your right and you're on their left. Same applies to an uncontrolled intersection when you're turning right out of a T junction, traffic turning right into the street you're pulling out of must give way to you. Good luck with that though.

But surely all carpark exits have giveway signs and anyone on a giveway sign gives way to uncontrolled traffic.
not many people know this . but no point trying to abide by it because it would probably result in a accident

And then it will make sense.

I don't think I have ever seen an uncontrolled intersection.Do they exist!

Yes, the current rules are outdated, resulting in frequent deadlock situations.The current rules basically allow the car that has to cross the most amount of traffic to go first, before other cars that can more easily move.

it used to be the other way around here and in oz then they went to this system, oz went back years ago now nz is going back to the old way

Most not all.
If there is a Give way sign that takes precedence

Balls. The US 4-way yields result in deadlocks. Name one intersection and traffic configuration in this country that results in a deadlock.

there is a '+'intersection in Wellington. Everyone has a stop sign. Get a car on each stop sign (frequently happens at peak times) and everyone gets confused. One of those situations where you just shut your eyes and drive.
yep by able smith street! really then everyone should stay there for eternity!otherwise someone is bad ass and breaks the law

What intersection!
(if there IS a 4 way stop, local authority is being naaaawdy - should be long gone)

ha so it is.stooopid.
Anywhooo, it's not the give way rules that make that a deadlock.
