1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a first wireless device based on a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT, comprising:
memory; and
one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to cause the first wireless device to:
receive a prior sidelink transmission from a second wireless device using the second RAT, wherein the second RAT comprises New Radio (NR);
determine a priority level of a second sidelink transmission for reception using the second RAT based on a reservation of sidelink resources for the second sidelink transmission made by the prior sidelink transmission received from the second wireless device using the second RAT; and
transmit or receive a higher priority sidelink transmission that has a higher priority level among a first sidelink transmission using the first RAT and the second sidelink transmission using the second RAT in response to a detection that transmission of the first sidelink transmission using the first RAT will overlap in time with reception of the second sidelink transmission using the second RAT, wherein the first RAT is different than the second RAT.
