In the presented situation, does the illuminated light prohibit you from going beyond the traffic lights?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
The traffic lights in front of you - the one on the pole on the left, next to sign D-6, and the one on the pole on the right - are showing red and amber at the same time. This combination is not green yet: the ban on going beyond the traffic lights still applies. Red with amber only announces that green is about to come on, and gives you a moment to get ready to move off.
The Regulation on road signs and signals specifies that red and amber signals shown at the same time mean a ban on going beyond the traffic lights, and at the same time inform you that the green signal will come on in a moment. Moving off on this signal means driving on red - you wait behind the car in front of you until you see green.
Legal basis: § 95 para. 1 point 4 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
