Have you got priority over the vehicle making a U-turn in this situation?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video at night you are approaching a junction with sign A-7 "give way" before it, together with a sign ordering you to turn right. The traffic lights at the junction show a flashing amber signal, so they do not control traffic - the signs are what count. At the junction a red car is making a U-turn through a gap in the central reservation, crossing your path. You are on a minor road, so you do not have right of way over it. The answer is: no.
Sign A-7 warns of a junction with a priority road, and the Regulation on road signs and signals defines a minor road as a road on which the driver gives way to everyone approaching the junction along the main road - no matter whether they are going straight on, turning or making a U-turn. The driver making the U-turn is moving on the priority road, so you wait until he finishes the manoeuvre and leaves your path.
Legal basis: § 5 para. 5, § 1 para. 2 point 2 and § 98 para. 6 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
