What is the difference between a controlled intersection and an uncontrolled intersection?

Controlled intersections have signs, signals, and/or pavement markings to tell drivers and others what to do. Uncontrolled intersections do not have any traffic controls to regulate traffic, i.e., there are no stop signs, yield signs, or traffic signals.

How many feet is an uncontrolled intersection?

Some states have additional requirements that forbid parking within 30 feet of any flashing beacon, stop sign or traffic control signal located at the side of the road.

What does the T intersection sign mean who has the right of way at at intersection?

Right-of-way rules at a T-intersection. At an uncontrolled T intersection, the driver on the street which ends must yield the right-of-way to vehicles and pedestrians on the cross street.

The right of way law at an uncontrolled intersection is governed by RCW 46.61.185. It states that the car on the right is the favored driver if both cars enter an intersection at approximately the same time. This means that the car on the right at an uncontrolled T-intersection would have the right of way.
