In this situation, when turning right at the intersection, do you have priority over vehicles approaching from the left?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video we approach a junction with sign B-20 "STOP" and plate T-6c, which shows that the priority road comes from the opposite direction and turns left. When turning right, you do not have right of way over vehicles approaching from the left - the answer is NO.
Sign B-20 requires you to stop before the junction and give way to drivers travelling on the priority road. Plate T-6c shows that the priority road leads from the left, so vehicles approaching from the left are travelling on it and have right of way, even when you are only turning right. The right-hand rule does not apply here, because priority is set by signs. You stop before the stop line, look left and enter only when you will not force the driver from the left to brake. When turning, you also let through pedestrians crossing the roadway you are entering.
