You intend to continue driving on the priority road. Should you use an indicator?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo, before the junction, there is sign D-1 "priority road" with plate T-6a, on which the thick line turns right. If you want to continue on the priority road, you must turn right at the junction, and a turn is a change of direction, which you signal with your indicator. The answer is: yes.
The Road Traffic Act requires you to signal clearly and in good time with your indicator your intention to change direction - whether you are turning into a minor road or staying on the main road. Drivers on the intersecting road and a pedestrian on the crossing must know where you are going; the course of the priority road tells them nothing about it. You switch on your right indicator before the junction and switch it off right after the turn.
Legal basis: Art. 22 para. 5 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 43 para. 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
