You intend to go straight ahead. Are you obliged to yield the right of way to the vehicle approaching from the right?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a street at night; before the junction you pass sign D-1 "priority road", and at the entry on the right amber warning lights are flashing. You intend to go straight on. You are on the priority road, so a vehicle coming from the right from the minor road must give way to you, not the other way round. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals says that D-1 marks the start or continuation of a priority road, on which a driver approaching a junction has right of way over those driving on the minor road. The right-hand rule does not apply where right of way is set by signs. However, having right of way does not free you from caution: at night you check whether the driver on the right is really stopping.
Legal basis: § 43 para. 1 and § 1 para. 2 point 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
