In this situation, do you have priority over the driver approaching from the opposite direction?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the photo you can see a narrow road passing under a railway viaduct, in front of which there is sign B-31 "priority for oncoming traffic", and on the sides yellow-and-black boards marking an obstacle. In this situation you do not have right of way to enter the narrowed section of the roadway before a driver approaching from the opposite direction - the answer is NO.
Sign B-31 prohibits drivers from entering a narrowed section of the roadway if this would force drivers who are on that section or approaching it from the opposite direction to stop. On the sign, the black arrow pointing down means drivers from the opposite direction, who have right of way, and the red arrow pointing up means your direction. On the other side of the viaduct, drivers see sign D-5 "priority on a narrow section of road". Before entering under the viaduct you slow down, check that nobody is coming, and if necessary wait before the narrowing.
