Prior to designing, you first need to gather the technical requirements. Once you have a clear set of technical requirements, then you can start the application design process. During the application design process, you also need to gather the non-technical requirements and start the architecture design process.

My requirement is that i have a junction where four roads from four direction meets. The vehicles from one direction can take the other three directions. For this system i need to do a design. What are the non functional requirements that i can think of in this design.

Sounds like a homework assignment.

So any vehicle traveling thru the junction MUST be able to continue in any of the three remaining directions.

Can the vehicle continue going forward without changing direction?

What if you add another roadway, can the vehicle also go down this path?
