In this situation, are you warned of approaching a crossroads without right of way?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video, you are driving in summer on a road outside town, along trees on the left and fields on the right; on the right there is a yellow triangle with a thick vertical line and a thin branch to the left - sign A-6c "junction with a minor road on the left". You are warned that you are approaching a junction with a minor road. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that signs A-6a, A-6b and A-6c warn of a junction with a minor road on the side shown on the sign - A-6a on both sides, A-6b on the right, A-6c on the left. The thick line on the sign is your road, and the thin branch is the minor road, with sign A-7 or B-20 at its entry. The sign tells you that ahead there is a junction where you have right of way. Like every warning sign, however, it requires you to exercise particular caution - a driver coming out of the minor road may miss their sign or misjudge your speed, and the principle of limited trust tells you to allow for their mistake. As you approach the junction, you glance at the entry on the left and keep your foot over the brake.
Legal basis: § 5 para. 2 point 3 and § 3 para. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 25 para. 1 and Art. 4 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
