Does this sign warn of an uncontrolled intersection?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video we are driving along a residential street between blocks of flats, past parked cars, towards a junction with signs A-5 "crossroads" and D-6 "pedestrian crossing" in front of it. This sign warns of an uncontrolled junction of equal roads - the answer is YES.
Sign A-5 "crossroads" warns of a junction where priority is not set by signs - in everyday language it is called a junction of equal roads. You will recognise it by a black cross in a yellow triangle with a red border, with arms of equal thickness. At such a junction you give way to vehicles approaching from the right, and when turning left - also to vehicles coming from the opposite direction going straight on or turning right. Do not confuse it with signs A-6a, A-6b and A-6c, on which one road is drawn with a thicker line - they warn of a junction with a minor road, where you are the one who has right of way.
