Show the correct answer

Correct answer

YES

Explanation

In the video, on the right, a person on an electric scooter suddenly rides out onto the roadway from an internal road marked with sign D-40 with a plate. Formally, the scooter rider is joining traffic (włączanie się do ruchu) and should give way to you, but their sudden appearance is a real hazard: an electric scooter is small and quiet, and its rider often does not stop before riding out. The answer is: yes.

The Road Traffic Act requires every road user to be careful and to avoid actions which could create a hazard - this also applies to you when you see that someone else is making a mistake. A scooter rider coming out of a residential area or an internal road is joining traffic and must give way, but the rule will not stop the scooter for its rider. You take your foot off the accelerator and are ready to brake.

Legal basis: Art. 3 para. 1 and Art. 17 para. 1 point 1 and para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
