In this situation, are you obliged to yield the right of way to vehicles moving on a circular traffic intersection?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video we are following a line of cars towards a roundabout; at the entry there are signs A-7 "give way" and C-12 "roundabout", and sign D-6 before the crossing. In this situation you are obliged to give way to vehicles moving on the roundabout - the answer is YES.
Sign C-12 together with sign A-7 means that a driver who is already within the junction has right of way over a driver entering it. Whoever is already on the roundabout goes first, and you wait at the entry until a gap appears on the roundabout roadway into which you can fit without forcing others to brake. If there were no sign A-7 at the roundabout, the right-hand rule would apply and the driver entering would have right of way - that is why you always look at the signs before entering. Before the roundabout you also let pedestrians on the crossing go, and when leaving it, you signal your intention with the indicator.
