You intend to turn left at the junction. Do you have to yield the right of way to the oncoming bus going straight?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video, you are driving along a wide street in town; before the junction you pass sign D-1 "priority road" and B-22 "no right turn", the traffic lights show green, and an oncoming coach is going straight on. You intend to turn left, so you must give way to it. The answer is: yes.
The Road Traffic Act requires a driver turning left to give way to a vehicle coming from the opposite direction going straight on or turning right. Neither the priority road nor the general green light gives you an advantage over vehicles coming from the opposite direction - they are on the same priority road and have the same green. A coach needs a lot of space, so you do not cut in front of it at the last moment.
Legal basis: Art. 25 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
