Are you obliged in this situation to yield the right of way to the vehicle approaching from the left?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video you are approaching a roundabout marked with signs C-12 "roundabout" and A-7 "give way". A car is coming along the roundabout from the left. Whoever is already driving on the roundabout has right of way over a driver entering it, so you must let it go first. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign C-12 together with A-7 means that a driver who is already on the junction has right of way over a driver entering it. On a roundabout traffic moves to the right, around the central island, so vehicles always come from your left. Before you enter, you look left and wait for a gap; you stop only when it is necessary.
Legal basis: § 36 para. 1 and 2 and § 5 para. 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
